Training
It has now gone a couple of weeks since I started to train for the GBG race. It has gone relatively OK but I cant be able to train really hard for a while. Here is a outline that I have been working out after. More updates will come.

First training
Today I did my first training session for the Göteborgsvarvet. I started with 5km so as I could listen to my body and know what Ill need to work on. It was a simple jogging with a time of 25min. Problems or issues I need to work on are my knees that are hurting (I probably need to stretch more), my back that still hasn't recovered.
After the running it was time to hit the gym. I worked my shoulders, legs and the most important area the CORE.
When working the legs I try not to us to much weights but rather work the muscles to be strong. I don't need any excess weight. Using a gym-boll it is easier to get strength and not volume.
Well thats all for today. Tomorrow I will be at the gym working my chest & triceps probably some crosstraining.

Göteborgsvarvet
I have now entered GöteborgsVarvet. The race is in about 34 weeks and I will start training next week. Right now I have a back injury but hopefully it wont hurt that much.
My training will consist of running, strength training, spinning and walking. I will run a longer distance once a week, do spinning once a week and hit the gym about 3 to 4 time a week. on the way to the gym I will be running and it takes about 20min one way.
Later on when its about 15 to 20 weeks to the race I will increase running intensity to about 3 times a week. I can do this since I have a good training background and therefore I dont need to work very hard/often compared to others that dont run frequently.
I will be updating the blog after every session. I will also put up a list over products that I will be using during my training.
I am also in search of sponsors. If you know anyone that would like to sponsor with anything (food, drinks, clothes or even a trip to GBG) let me know.
By the way my goal is 1h & 30min. ps this is my first time to run a half marathon.
