Preparations

Training in Namibia08 Apr

Four days of grueling sun has prepared me for the heat of the mid-day during the Namibian Ultra Marathon. I have been in Namibia since Saturday and have had 2 days hiking in the mountains and 2 days in an absolutely magical place called Soussusvlei, an area with red sand dunes and the most amazing scenary. Day of recovery, after Namibian Ultra

Tomorrow I join the rest of the group and I hope that these four days have prepared me well for the challange to come.

When I have been out here my memories from last year’s race have come back. The heat of the day, the feeling that your heart is going to jump out of your chest and the inability of pushing your body like you normally can is something that will be there on Saturday. Hopefully I can control it better and my body can be slightly adjusted to the heat.

In three days I will know.

Tomorrow I go out in the desert.

Excitment and feeling scared.
