52 Lives

This week was a disaster what it comes to training. I had a bad flu, so I skipped every chance I had to go jogging in my shiny brand new shoes… They’re just waiting there to get dirty… I bought a new pair of running socks on Saturday, so I’d better get well and soon! Otherwise all my money goes to Nike’s/Asics’ pocket.

Instead of the typical weekly wrap up, I put my week in to the acronym SICK. Wanna know what is the best part of being SICK?

SICK Equals…

1. S = sick. It’s really stupid that every autumn the flu comes. When it hits me, my nose is draining for 2-3 days and I need to pop my ears every now and then. But what sucks the most is that I can’t exercise! Oh, the pain…
2. I = insomnia. I just can’t fall asleep when I get new ideas. I turn around in bed while my mind keeps developing the ideas further. To get some sleep I’ve been doing number 3.
3. C = coding. I had an idea for a WordPress plugin, so I started coding it a week ago. For those who aren’t familiar with WP, it is a free blogging platform which capabilities can be extended with plugins. I’ve managed to code the plugin 1-2 hours a day and on weekend I dedicated a good 4 hours to it each day. It’s the main reason why my blog has been neglected for a while But the plugin works now, just need to make last adjustments. Last night I slept for straight 8 hours. Fantastic!
4. K = Kimi fan. The most celebrated Finn of the week (and the best part of SICK) was definitely Kimi Räikkönen. He won the Formula 1 championship on his first year at Ferrari. The final race in Sao Paolo was a thriller, since there were 3 pilots competiting for the championships (Lewis Hamilton /McLaren, Fernando Alonso/McLaren, Kimi Räikkönen/Ferrari). Kimi was in the third position in the total points, 7 points behind Hamilton. History wasn’t on Kimi’s side neither. But eventually he finished won the race, Alonso was left to the third place and Hamilton finished 7th, so the parties could begin! Way to go, Kimi!!!
