karate, the blue belt test
Martial arts 0:43'39 Average heart rate 126 bpm.
Karate, blue belt test - and I f*en got it! It was not easy at all, starting from kihon (basic techniques) to kata (imagenary fight) to kumite (actually blocking and kicking ass of the real opponent). I was a bit tense, but it's not really easy to relax during that can kind of exercise and under evaluation of sensei and mates. Anyway, challenge completed and time to create new targets...

My first half triathlon
Triathlon 5:56'51.4 Average heart rate 146 bpm, 111.2 km.
My first 1/2 triathlon. 1.9 + 90 + 21.2 km. Official time 5'56'50.5. Swimming 0'43'00, Cycling 3:17'10 and running 1:56'42. Swimming was quite close to martial arts training; lot of hits and kicks both taken and given in rush to find your own passage. Cycling was otherwise easy, but I had no experience on cycling such a long distances before. I took it quite easy and was able to increase my pace with running and now I can be proud of how EPOC curve ends.

Helsinki City Run 2011
Running 1:43'39 Average heart rate 164 bpm, 21.10 km.
Helsinki City Run. After being sick the whole April it felt really good to have a long distance run. I took target to run under 1:45 and I'm happy to see that it was realistic one. I still dream of running Stockholm Mararhon under 3:30, but I doubt that remaining 3 weeks is enough training time to find my normal pace again. However, weather was perfect, running was mostly quite easy and end result is better than expected. Wine will taste better tonight than normally. And I love wine. :-)

Easy & enjoyable
Skating 1:40'33 Average heart rate 127 bpm, 21.50 km.
It was a perfect weather for ice skating. I guess I burnt the calories that I ate at cafeteria Jokamies after skating.
