 Alright, so just out for a little run today, it's December here in Norway, it's getting really cold, still no snow though, but I think the forecast said that it's due to arrive tomorrow or the day after that, so I don't know, this might be my last run in the woods for a few months. The ground is pretty dry though, mostly frozen, I'm very fortunate to have a... it's not that densely populated around here, so there's still a lot of nature or forest because you got to know gear is essential. In like warmer climates you can get away sometimes with just a few items of clothing, but if you live in Norway you need all kinds of clothing to take you through the winter. All kinds of different temperatures, different weather, rain, snow, hail, wind, just moving through a little bit of a wet patch here. Thankfully I'm not gonna have to deal with the Norwegian winter because I'm heading to Nis in southern France, so I'll be spending January and February over there and that'll be nice because the running conditions there are really good and so it's not gonna be warm like La Palma would be or tropical but it's better than Norway. The Sun is a little bit higher on the horizon which is good for my mood and energy levels. Still no vitamin D though, but that's fine. I'm supplementing with that anyway. So a little bit more Sun and temperature wise it's gonna be comfortable, you know, like between 5 and 15 degrees Celsius which is really pretty perfect for running actually. So I look forward to taking you with me there, showing you guys around in Nis, taking you with me on long runs, all that good stuff, so that's gonna be awesome. Coming up in just a month, check it out. So beautiful. You know Norway is so awesome as long as the Sun is out, but the days with no sunshine, they suck. Anyway, this downhill coming up now is so awesome. It's one of my favorite downhills, trail downhills in this area. Let's go. So if you follow me on social media you'll know that I did the race called Biddinge battle uppe which is the raspberry run this summer and in the middle part of that run you're coming up here and it's tough. It is tough. I've been climbing for a while. It's a pretty short race. It's not a tough tough race, but it's a short and intense race, you know, and you're coming up here, around here and you're climbing up up up and I remember approximately around this point here the guy in front of me was standing bent over. I couldn't continue almost. He was like, you know, and as I passed him I pat him on the back and said good work or something like that. I don't remember what I said, but I don't know if he felt like it was demoralizing or motivating. I don't know, but I passed him anyway and I was chased by a girl that was running behind me all the time the whole the whole race until the very end where I got away. Thankfully.
