Tirsdag 4 mars
Idag var det hardt aa staa opp av sengen, stiv over hele kroppen etter gaarsdagens knallharde etappe. Dagens etappe skulle vaere regnet som den toffeste terrengmessig og var paa 40 km , med sandyner, saltsletter , gjorme som var gaat over til krystaller og saa ut og foltes som koraller. Umulig aa lope paa, I tillegg saa bristet enkelte av de og man gikk da igjennom til saltet gjorme opp paa leggen…
2 forste stagene gikk greit ,men paa vei til den tredje vannforsynningen , begynte jeg aa faa problemer med dehydrering. Startet aaa fole meg kvalm og litt apatisk. Og varmen I disse sandynene var helt ekstremt , det er nesten saa man ikke klarer aa puste. Man kjenner pulsen er hoy bare man gaar rolig,I tillegg saa er de saa bratte at man tar to steg frem og ett tilbake.
Vel kort oppsummert , slet meg til maal og rett paa medic. Ingen dramatkk, men bare dehydrert. Har drukket 7 liter I lopet av dagen og det var for lite , pisset ikke en eneste gang underveis.!!! I gaar maalte de 54 grader enkelte steder uoffisielt, sinnsykt.
Faatt I meg en fiskesuppe og mye electrolytter , foler meg bedre naa. Blir toft imorgen med nye 4,4 mil , men den skal ikke vaere saa toff sier de som har vaert med for, men varmen blir vi ikke kvitt, part of the game.
Ble nr 30 idag med problemene saa litt nedtur, men maalet er jo aa fullfore ,ikke plasseringen.
Har ikke muligheter til aa lese comments dere evt. Har sendt meg , men faar sikkert lest de imorgen.
Ha en fin kveld alle der hjemme.

Snow is falling down and there are -5 outside here in Norway! Not easy to run , but snow feels maybe like sand so focus need to be positive.
Hav done a hard training period for the last two months and feel tired , but will go on with a lot of training out desember. From January I will start to train with backpack and less number of training days. BUT will of course have one weekly longer run appr. 15/20 miles +.
First competition in 2013 will be tough guy run in wolverhampton UK.

It will not be any possibility for acclimasation to heat and altitude so I wonder how this will be when I came to Atacama??

Good advice is welcome
Also wonder how other competitor is training so pls comment
Nice Christmas to all
