Stopping the downward spiral

The last months and weeks have been a continuous downward spiral for me running-wise. Just when I thought I hit rock bottom and couldn’t sink any lower there was another setback.

I spend the last two weeks for a major break and some detraining. Most of my runs I did with some mates to get the fun back to running. Furthermore I went to see some doctors to check if there is something wrong in the system. End of last week I had blood tests but unfortunately I will only get the results next week.

This week I’m planning to start more serious training again. Nothing too special though, just increasing the mileage to something around 140km plus some alternative training. Let’s see how my body will respond.
