LaufLog2014_5k_W09-W12

Geschafft


Die Selbstdisziplinierung in Form dieses kleinen Blogs und eines einfachen 5k-Trainingsplans hat funktioniert. Ein kleiner Vermuthstropfen ist die Tatsache, dass ich die letzten Trainingswochen hier im Blog nicht mehr wöchentlich dokumentiert habe. Das Nachreichen der Ergebnisse der letzten vier Wochen ist deshalb rein obligatorisch.
Im Grossen und ganzen war das jedoch ein grosser Spass und ich habe wieder zu einer grundlegenden läuferischen Stetigkeit gefunden. Längere Strecken am Sonntag sind jetzt auch kein Graus mehr, von denen ich mich jedes Mal tagelang erholen muss und die intensiven Einheiten machen richtig Spass, da sich auch meine konditionelle Leistungsfähigkeit im oberen Bereich deutlich verbessert hat.

Als nächstes Projekt lauert ab nächster Woche schon der erste 12-Wochen Trainingsplan 10k. Allerdings muss ich mir noch überlegen, welche Spielregeln ich mir vorgebe, da ich zeitlich etwas beschränkt bin und vorerst weder besonders häufig -also öfters als vier Mal die Woche- noch besonders lang, -also über 90min- laufen möchte. Auf jeden Fall werde ich wieder wöchentlich dokumentieren, denn auch diesmal ist ein vorzeitiges Scheitern aufgrund Trägheit, Dunkelheit, Kälte, chronischer Unlust und millionen anderer Vorwände, nicht ausgeschlossen. Am 03.11. geht es los, man darf gespannt sein.

Diese Woche ist jedoch eine Pausewoche mit lockerem Beineschütteln und Sofagammeln angesagt - die Leistungssteigerung kommt ja bekanntlich in der Erholungsphase :-)

If It Helps Someone, It's Valuable

The World Is Full Of Problems  This is good news. Actually it is great news. Problems are opportunities for growth - if you are able to find -and successfully apply- the solution to a problem that will help someone in any way, you will inevitably create value. If you can find a solution to a big problem (e.g. cure for cancer) you will create an immense value. If you can find a solution to a not so gargantuan, but widespread problem, you will have created tremendous value. But even if you find a solution to a small problem that will benefit a few people, you might still have the benefit of being able to learn something valuable that you can apply later in the solution of greater problems. Don't let yourself be discouraged by the (lack of) magnitude of problems: keep your eyes open and help people even if they do not approach you proactively - this will invite good things to happen to you in the long run. However not everybody in the workforce seems to have the proclivity to solve pr...

The Importance of Role Models

Strategic Considerations To me it has always been of paramount importance to have a vision of my model identity. In order to develop towards that ideal my role models would help me strengthen that vision. One effective strategy to find fitting role models is to pick the right environment. Certain organizations will promote specific types of personalities over others. For example in the military there is a tendency to recruit engaging, clearly structured people who have a natural preference to take decisions and action in the face of danger, i.e. under pressure. Thus firm leadership is a skill that is highly valued in military organizations. Other organizations might promote creativity, diversity, individualism and so on. Ask yourself which values you regard as the most precious and then look out for organizations whose values might match best. How To Be A Role Model The good news: setting the bar for being a role model will entirely be up to you. It is your own mind first that you need...

Happiness And Anxiety

Just A Feeling Despite all the drawbacks caused by the pandemic I have to admit that ever since the kids were born I have been feeling more happy in general. To set the stakes even higher, I have already been pretty damned happy ever since I met my wife several years earlier. Maybe it is because the kids fill me with hope that all is good and is steadily improving. Also they give a whole new purpose to everything in my life. I have only really had a few significant stretches where I felt so beaten down or lethargic, that I had issues to motivate myself. There were only three significant times I was struggling with my decisions and had serious doubts that I made the right choices.  Freaking Out In The Barracks The first time was in 1998, when I signed a contract as a contract soldier for 12 years. During my first couple of days with the military the magnitude of my decision sank with the utmost brutality. It totally freaked me out. I spent the first night in some spartan barracks in...
