Some comments on these numbers:
- Running: Yes! Plenty of half-marathon races and exercising required for these resulted in a lot more running. Maybe too much as my knee injury forced me to take it slow – and therefore walk instead of run – at the end of the year.
- Cycling: Time is limited – focusing more on running took my attention away from cycling… and the summer weather wasn’t that nice either to be honest….
- Swimming: Ok, still not great but my swimming is definitely improving again… Started swimming on a (more or less) weekly basis and will definitely try to keep this up also in 2016.
- Skiing: Like probably everyone else here in Southern Finland I really really long for another proper winter. Most of the skiing was once again back in the Swiss mountains.
With the above numbers I end up with a total of 129 activities leading to an average of 2.48 activities/week – more than last year – YEYY!
Races
Ok, I might have been trying to achieve too much when I signed up for all this year’s races. As a result this year’s race schedule was packed with plenty of half marathons and even a full marathon. I decided to skip the Helsinki Half Marathon as it overlapped with the IGSM in Finland and unfortunately had to forfeit the full Espoo Rantamarathon due to a knee injury… All in all though I’m still very happy with the results! I’m especially excited about the new personal half marathon best time of 1hr 44 minutes at the Runner’s Twilight…

Travelling
In Numbers: 32 flights / 37’512km/ 66h 10min
My travelling activities are increasing again – allthough 2015 was mainly shuttling around Europe… Let’s see if 2016 will allow me to also fly a bit further – maybe it is finally time for some vacation in some exotic destination :-)
