So – this is it. I survived :) Managed to go to 10 of 12 sessions – which means my colleague Mirek lost the bet and he owes me a bottle of champagne! My knee doesn’t feel very comfortable, but as for the rest – it was a great excersise, both in terms of getting in shape and showing the will to last till the end (which I can’t really say about Eliška who gave up realizing this is not her cup of tea). Anyway, if I shall sum it all up, I’m glad I went for it. I enjoyed … Celý článek →

Really briefly this time – too much stuff to sort out at work today – even though on Mon evening I felt like my knees hurt so much I couldn’t make it for the stairs (almost), I haven’t canceled yesterday badminton match for the evening. And that was a good decision – it was a great match (and I also won 3:1)! To make things worse, I kinda couldn’t get myself to sleep, so after less than 4 hours I felt bit tired for today. Michal fortunately didn’t make us run, we rather focused on coordination and stretching, and it … Celý článek →

Uff, today I can just say – this was probably the longest run for me – in my life ;) Lenka came and told us that it’s all about running today, you can check the map (Google Maps don’t have every path, so it is not perfect, but good enough for you to have an idea). I’m quite sure it was more than 8 km. Eliška and Míra didn’t make it today…   Dnes jen velmi stručně: asi nejdelší běh v mém životě, zvládl jsem to relativně se ctí ;) Lenka přišla, řekla „výběh“ a už jsme valili směr zoo. Však se můžete mrknout … Celý článek →

OK, with a day delay – I was the only of us four who made it yesterday for bootcamp! still going for 10 of 12 sessions :) this time with Petr, a bit more running (actually, I wonder when or whether I ran such length at once without stopping – though it was probably just a few miles)… It started to rain, but just mildly, worse point was that I did something wrong to my back – and now it actually hurts :( anyway, next week is the last one – but I want to continue with some sport activities … Celý článek →

Oh yeah. You might wonder where is the 6th and 7th part? Well, I wasn’t there. On Good Friday the effects of previous day (we call it Green Thursday) were just a bit too brutal for me to get up. What happened? Brno is to be blamed since our brewery Starobrno started some time ago a tradition of delivering special „green beer“ on Green Thursday. Plus I have had girls from Couchsurfing staying with me and so on… And on Monday, I was of course in Brno myself, still, the training wasn’t canceled (but just one girl came). So today … Celý článek →

So almost in the half of the whole thing – today it was the first time we haven’t had Lenka as our couch, but Michal was responsible :) I must say that I really like both Lenka and Michal, since they not only know very well, what are they doing, but they are very nice people who genuinly care about us, help us progress and adjust the exercices as they see how we struggle. Really nice mix of running and exercices this morning, with a kitschy sunrise over beautiful park of Stromovka. Míra didn’t made it – a pity, since … Celý článek →
