Weekly Wrap. Week 35 This week I have been going back to Ironman Copenhagen. I am still reflecting on it, still trying to understand it, understand what happened here. The title of this entry should give you a hint that it did not go as planned and I had troubles with it. However, understanding those … Continue reading Ironman Copenhagen 2017 part 2: No Quarter.

Ironman Copenhagen 2017 Part 1
Weekly Wrap. Week 34 This week was all focused on collecting myself, my thoughts, my stuff at the appartment we were renting and going back home. After week and a half in Denmark, it was finally the time to come back to Vilnius. And after nearly two months of twice-a-day trainings, it is time to … Continue reading Ironman Copenhagen 2017 Part 1
Deduction through one day
Weekly Wrap. Week 33 To mix things up, I will start it off with a bottomline - I should have had a better idea, how to structure tapering weeks and the ones, which will lead me to the race. I had been smashed and up again during this week, sometimes not wanting to do a … Continue reading Deduction through one day
Checking scabs again
Weekly wrap. Week 32 Just like a child, opening a Kinder Surprise, I received something I have not planned for, nor anticipated, when I opened my tapering week.

I am on track and progressing, sessions are going well and I am able to recover. Of course, from time to time I have to adapt to happenings around me - f.e. last … Continue reading The Good, the Bad, the Ugly
Tri-ing to get ready
Descoping the project So last week we ended up on a low note, where I showed you how did my April and May look like. To make sense of words illness, complications, injuries which were shown on nearly every week of those months in my plan, I will try to expand onto those and tell … Continue reading Tri-ing to get ready
Back to the Ironning
Quick Recap I have thought about coming back to continuing with this blog so many times during my runs, bikes (I skipped far too many swims this year, to think about blog during those), but only thanks to Ironman 70.3 Elsinore 2017 have I actually tried to set everything up to continue with it and … Continue reading Back to the Ironning
