OK, here’s a monkey off my back. In March I participated in Pirkan Hiihto and there were things I wanted to write a post about. So, after 3,5 months I finally finished this post - the 5 lessons I learned in 90 kilometers.

Last Sunday I participated Pirkan Hiihto, the longest one-day skiing race in Finland. After 12 hours, 22 minutes and 27 seconds I finished the 90km race. And they also gave me a nice medal 
More about the race in the next posts.

I’m going to participate in Pirkan hiihto on March 2. It’s the longest one day cross-country skiing competition in Finland. My former colleague is also participating, so I thought why not? I’m always open-minded for new challenges. Skiing for 90 km sounds crazy enough to be tried - at least once.
The race is now two months away. I bought skis a month ago and during our Christmas vacation I really enjoyed skiing. Yesterday I made up my mind and filled the participation form on Pirkan hiihto’s web site.
I’m all excited about the race, but now I need to start training and that’s always hard. It’s easy to get excited and carried away, but when the reality (=work needed to achieve the goal) kicks in, things get harder. A huge amount of motivation and self-discipline is needed. But it’s only for two months, so I think I can change my eating/drinking/training habits for that time.
