Shift of focus // better multi focus

2nd place at our local Reindeer Run 2015!

Well technically I was third and Indy was second. At that point she was energized again. Half point not so much. Could have been the water right new to us!
Very happy to be able to get a local kid into running. We have been cursing the streets of CDA for 4 month now and today was his first race. Way to go Kaelin!

Winning CDA Marathon 2015

Wow what a battle. I felt OK going into this Marathon, but I did not know how much punch I had. I started strong and felt this was going ok.
But than, at mile 13 I got passed and I thought that was it. Well 2nd is great too.
So I tried to stay in my zone. At mile 24 I could not believe my eyes, the guy was walking;) And there it was, my next gear. I put it all in and flew by him and left no doubt that I wanted to win. I did not fight back and within one mile, I took 3 more minutes out of him.
Great win and fantastic feeling to finish with my little girl.

Second win of the season

Two starts, two wins for the year.
The Indoor Triathlon USA a great early season race and it hurts! You have to push hard, not knowing where the rest of the competition is.

Marathon win #10

I won my 10th Marathon. Not my fastest run, but with little training and the experience of 70+ Marathons, I pulled of another victory. --- Kjell
PS: Thank you CDA Press for the great picture!

#22 in the books

Thanks to everyone for the support.

I had a good Ironman this year.

Win #2

Today, I experimented with a long run and a hard race. I started at 5am for a 18 mile long run.
Got home ate some and drove to race a 5km race at the Freeman HS.
Time was slow (18:12min), but I felt pretty good for the first 2 miles, than my legs locked up.
Good test and another win in the books.

First race … first win

Great to start the  racing year with a win. Snowy and windy conditions. I still pulled off a controlled 5km win - in 16:58min! There was room to the second guy and in my speed;)

Dear Airlines ...

where did you lose your customer service. Employees are rude, they don`t want to help and the best thing if they mess up it is my fault.
Problem, you cannot get around them, if you have to travel.

Here and impression of my christmas present box from my last trip back home from germany. This damage was done between SanFrancisco and Spokane.
