43' easy, first half of the run with my son Paul (7). Was ill the last week, think I needed a few more days to recover. Now I will try to run consistent 6 days a week.

At the moment it's not possible for me to run consistent. I'm often ill in ear, nose and throat. Need to keep it relaxed and run when possible.

70' easy with headlight in the dark forest. Not good to run anything faster than really easy pace.

Had such an amazing running feeling with fresh legs at the end of this recovery week, that I decided to change my training: Will alternate a "volume week" including more marathon training with a lower in volume "intensity week" including more threshold running and fartleks. Think this will help me very much.

Last run of the year! After

473 miles (762 km) for the 2nd half of 2016 (started running again) and

1200 miles (1933 km) in 2017,

I am very happy with 1806 miles (2907 km) in 2018.

But: There is still a lot of room for improvement!
