Making the transition from hauling tires to hauling a rucksack isn´t as easy as I thought. But fun. A joy because my training nowadays are 4 days on, 1 day off, 4 days on, 1 day off. And even though I am outdoors as much as before, at the gym as much as before, it is new training ways.
I see myself still in the recovery period after Greenland this month out. Than it is full on until Killimanjaro in April with Kensington Alpine Club. Than a transitional month, followed by June and July somewhat harder until next alpine adventure planned in September.
I am telling you this because it takes a lot of energy, time, motivation and guts to do this. Again. And today I felt tired, and did 3½ hours instead of the stipulated 4-6 which my programme wanted me to do. But the advantage of age is, you know your body well.
So what is the motivation? I just love this life, first of all, it is such a privilage to live a dream. Secondly I want to become a better human being, more generous, more loving and open. Hard work and discipline helps. Thirdly I want to inspire my daughters and everyone around me. And others. And tell stories. And I am still very curious.
It is a great time to be alive. This kind of life is more available to people all over the world than ever before. More people than ever have good lifes. This is a fact. All over the world.
I am also very curious about how AI will affect us human beings. I do not fear it, I see so many positive things. Any bearer of for example an Oura ring understands this. I consult AI in many things. It isn´t always perfect, but very helpful. And we are just in the beginning.
That was what I was thinking about on todays grey, slightly windy walk through some countryside, some urban areas along Skåneleden. No other walkers as always.
