News from Geneva. I have now 1.5 year followed the "Eric Orton" exercises  and I run 2-3 times a week. I have slowly (extremely) increased my kilometers and I am now running 10 km 2-3 times a week. I stopped last  autumn 6 weeks running because I had pain like inside the calf bone of my left leg. I never found out what is was. Just to say 3-4 months ago it all came together and it feels light to run, natural, athletic. When I come home from my runs it feels like I could easily run another 10 km or 15 km .  I have worn out my first pair of "Merrel vapour gloves". Just to say thanks Eric, it works, it is a great program ! Whether I will ever do marathons or ultra's I do not know. But just the pure pleasure of running, is for me enough.

I have slowly built up to 6 km in my neopren socks..now the real training can begin. I like the strength training however  I struggle to get up to 3 x 25 reps of the pistol squats..I hardly manage 3x 10..

Hi the swissball look seemed innocent, like a child toy, however after 2 reps of the excercises, I kind of changed my mind about it :-);

Anyway I think my cool impossible will be either the Zinal or the Zermatt sky-running, both places are stunning beautifull.

Tools are ready (half of them home made). I already did the slant board excercises one week combined with 5 minutes running in place barefoot, so calf muscles are "slightly" sore ..tried the swissball excercises today, kind of tough of couple of them. Anyway Geneva, Switzerland joined the cool impossible !
