Some training news

Oh my, you probably thought by now, I had totally given up, now did you?

Okay, so this and last week training was walking, walking, walking in the snow!!! Plus some stairs and squats. And dare I say it? My knee seems fine. Now that I said it, tomorrow will it probably misbehave. I always was this way. In any case, I can't go running with all this snow anyway, so there you have it, I'm stuck with walking and stairs for the time being.

This pic is from Sunday since then we've got about 20 cm of fresh snow.

When it comes to food I did misbehave this week, after all it's christmas market and I needed my fix with vanilla cream waffles. And I think, I've had it. We'll see how I think about it next week.;-)

Jobwise, I'm sending out application after application, thankfully Germany's recovering, so more and more interesting and fitting jobs are on offer, even though I just got another NO. Looks like I really can forget about engineering stuff, because the last two Nos were in engineering and really quick. Well, it's the loss of the german engineering in long term. China will take over in a few years, considering that their universities spit out hundred thousands of engineers every year and Germany is having trouble recruiting young people for engineering. And currently german engineering companies are still not ready to accept female engineers (what they don't say in press interviews). Well then, marketing and technology transfer here I come.

Have a great weekend everyone!

KEEP MOVING FORWARD!

Photosafiri or the right to eat some chocolate

Hi peeps.

I went on photosafari or photosafiri, as Chris and I call it from now on, with Chris to the Markkleeberger See on late afternoon yesterday.

Remember the Markkleeberger See? Chris and I were running there in December.

You'll find the report back here. Yesterday the lake was frozen over.

So essentially this means I got to walk quite a distance yesterday (at least measuring for the last few weeks). Wohoo, seems like my new hobby is working out alright. And we were out enjoying a beautiful sundown, though it was quite cold. I took a lot of pictures, which I'll post as soon as I get the films developed. Yep, I shot 2 films. 70 pictures?! You might ask, but remember you shoot differently with films than with digitals.

On facebook one of the other lomographers complained that only half of his pictures were good. Hahaha. I remember times when I had films where only one picture was alright. 50% good pictures, wow, sounds like he definitely knows how to take pictures. (Or his expectations on the quality were really low.)

In any case I think that this is the thing for me and gets me out there even more. Good thing for my training.

Do you have any other hobbies except for Triathlon and Running? If so, what do you do?

KEEP MOVING FORWARD!
