I´m still alive

I know. I should do better work with my blog. But the thing is that I have three different jobs, so sometimes it is hard to find time just to write the blog. I should also take much better care about the articles. So in a near future I´m hoping to write one article to each section.

Why I´m having three works is another story. From 2005 to 2007 I was the editor of chief of Juoksu&Hiihto- lehti. The magazine was doing well, but there was not enough ads. So just about three years ago the publisher surprised my by ending the magazine just like that without prior warnings.

I was unemployd for a while, and I started to send applications to find a new job. I also became a member in a working community, and that is the way I´m working today. I need to find my jobs now one byt one. Every week I´m writing for the newspaper 3-4 days, selling another newspaper 2 days, then I train marathoners and sometime I write articles to two magazine. Also I´m studying and running around 100 kilometers every week. So that is my life. I didn´t order it like that, but with these cards I must play.

But lets concentrate to my workouts for a two past weeks.

16.8. weighttraining and water running only 20 minutes - normally I don´t run on monday because of sundays long run.
