Late Night Thoughts

Ok, jag erkänner att jag missade visst ett helt års uppdateringar på bloggen. Men har under året som gått fortsatt att träna, har dock inte alltid gått som jag vill. Går betydligt sämre än jag egentligen vill men samtidigt har jag i varje fall inte slutat träna. Just nu ligger fokus kanske mera på styrka än på löpningen som var det jag verkligen brann för under några år. Har successivt insett att jag måste lägga in mera styrka för att få löpningen att fungera så i år så kör jag mera styrka så kanske löpningen lossnar i sommar. I år är ju egentligen året då jag ska springa ett Maraton enligt mitt egna löfte. Men blir det inte ett maraton i tävlingsform så ska jag fan be någon skjutsa mig 4.2 mil bort och lämna mig där! =)

På sätt och vis känns det bra att få ner på "papper" det jag tänker kring träningen. Träning är fan svårt, eller egentligen är kosten det svåra, träning älskar jag men att få i sig rätt mat. Doh.

Nåja om det här blir första och sista inlägget under 2018 så må det då vara så, jag lever!

Training in 2016

So its 2016 and a whole new year ahead of us!  By now most of you has made plans for how to start this years training. And thats Great! And regardless if its 5k runs or longer its important to taket one thing in consideration.

* Allways have fun! Training is supposed to be hard and painstaking but do it because you want to and like it. And whenever it gets tough try to remember why you do it.

For me, running has been an way to disconnect. To feel as if I can do Anything. Im far from a good runner and it is still a Long way to go before Im at a point where I can say: "I just ran 42k and Im going to do it again next month". But I like this road of not knowing when thats going to be.

As a father of 4, fatigue and life most often comes in my way. And sadly training is often where I pay the Price. But then again, life and family is more important than training so why complain?

This years resolution is to both train harder and be a better man. It might be tough at times but it sure as hell will be worth it!

See you in the trails!

Skoldags!

Tänk vad tiden går fort, för sju år sedan kom en liten lin tott till världen. Och nu har han gjort sin andra dag i skolan 😄

Stort grattis och lycka till Oliver!  

Marathon

Okej, det låter definitivt långsökt att jag som egentligen inte är så förtjust i löpning ska träna för en mara. Men allt eftersom man blir starkare så känns det inte helt omöjligt att genomföra. Tekniken måste arbetas på samt en hel del annat... Men det ska nog ordna sig, är ju inte i morgon som det är dags!

Tiden går fort

Känns som igår man satt på Röda Lyktan och pimpade kaffe, eller jobbade Kundservice på Coop. Nu sitter man rödögd av för lite sömn och hinkar i sig kaffe vid frukostbordet istället. De där "glamorösa" dagarna är förbi och utbytt av "Nej du får inte köra bilar på den nya tapeten!" och liknande fraser. Men det har sin charm allt det här, det är en del av ens liv som går så fort förbi. Snart har man lärt dem allt, sina djupa kunskaper om världens mysterier.

När tiden går så här fort för mig, går den då lika fort för andra? Ibland undrar jag vad de man jobbat med och gått skola med, som flyttade från orten, gör nu för tiden. Hur många har skaffat familj och barn? Vilka har köpt hus och kanske sålt dem redan, flyttat isär, vem satsade på sin karriär, vem är kvar i Sverige? Vilka har lämnat oss för evigt, för det förekommer ju också.

Många som flyttade svaldes upp av Stockholm verkar det som och även om många återvänder när det är dags för att starta sin familj så verkar många välja att bryta upp med det gamla. Sen kan det ju vara förståeligt, har man väl tagit sig iväg är det nog svårt att motivera en flytt tillbaka.

Kanske är dessa funderingar ett tecken på mognad eller att man börjar bli gammal.  Hur som helst så ska jag fortsätta hinka i mig kaffe nu, för det behövs!

AR Defender

Found this "old" //new for me// game some time ago, but havent remembered to post anything about it. Its called AR Defender and its an augmented reality game.

In this game you "control" a tower from different types of enemies. Gradually the difficulty gets tougher but then you also get some better weapons as the game goes on. But to the cool thing about the game, put simply its a game in real life. You use the phones camera to project the tower onto a piece of paper on your desktop or other surface!

 

Metal Hurlant Chronicles

I found this weird Tv show the other night called Metal Hurlant Chronicles. Apparently its based on an old Comic Book. "Métal Hurlant (literal translation: "Screaming Metal") is a French comics anthology of science fiction and horror comics stories, created in December 1974" - Wikipedia 

The show has some big names to it. Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner, Sin City, Batman Begins), Joe Flanigan (Stargate Atlantis, Fringe, Warehouse 13, CSI: Miami), Scott Adkins (The Expendables 2, The Bourne Supremacy, X-Men: Origins), David Belle (Prince of Persia, Babylon A.D.) and Kelly Brook (Piranha 3D, The Italian Job, Smallville).

Its different, but not bad. You be the judge!

Zero Hour

Being a fan of sci-fi shows isn't always such a good thing since most of them get cancelled after 1 or 2 seasons. Take for example Flashforward, The 4400, The Event etc etc. Regardless if this one is going to get cancelled it could be worth a first look.

This show stars Anthony Edwards from the ER in his search for his abducted wife who has been taken due to a nazi clock she has found. Conspiracies around every turn and not telling the audience anything at all is what I think will happen. And then cancelled due to lack of viewers. Want to make a bet?

  

Vikings

History channel is working on a TV-serie named Vikings which is to start Mars 3, 2013.

"Vikings follows the adventures of Ragnar Lothbrok the greatest hero of his age. The series tells the sagas of Ragnar's band of Viking brothers and his family, as he rises to become King of the Viking tribes. As well as being a fearless warrior, Ragnar embodies the Norse traditions of devotion to the gods, legend has it that he was a direct descendant of Odin, the god of war and warriors." - History Channel

This is going to be a lot of fun to watch, especially since there are too few dramas that take place in ancient time. Sure there are plenty about Rome, Italy, England etc. But how about a series that actually should be based out of Scandinavia (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland).

Defiance

In 88 days Syfys next big project launches.

 "The series is set in the near future, where aliens known collectively as Votans have come to Earth seeking a new home after their solar system was destroyed. However, when they reached Earth, they discovered despite a prolonged negotiation with the government on Earth, they were not welcome. Rather than turn away, they began a war with the humans as they are determined to make Earth their new home."- IMDB

A scifi twist on the whole immigrant theme and sure we've seen those before, but when you combine elements from the creators of Battlestar Galactica and Farscape you've got my attention!

Something new

So I took a quick look at my blogg and realised that it hasn't changed at all in a really long time. So with some "spare-time" which is basicly non existing I did some easy artwork on it.

I might be starting blogging on a more frequent basis, maybe! However if you really want to follow me and you know who I am then add me on facebook.

FREE STUFF

I recently started taking "free-stuff-online" more serious since my gf received parcel after parcel in the mailbox each day.

So when she mentioned that a site were giving away (competition naturally), glasses I jumped on the opportunity straight away. And here they are, two pair of "free" glasses, naturally I had to pay for delivery and some additions to the glass. But a lot cheaper than expected!

First pair: ---->

A big Thank You goes out to L for an outstanding free-stuff search!

Be like an Vampire for Halloween

Ever felt that you have wanted to try the stuff vampires drink in the HBO tv-series True Blood? Well here is your chance! Its now available for Swedish customers at Roligaprylar for the cheap price of 69 Sek. Time to go Internet shopping!

6-8 Minutes of joy

Bought a small Helicopter yesterday, and ooh boy am I in "heaven". Its fun ffs! But it recharges in 45 minutes and flies for about 6-8 minutes... I'm considering buying 10 of them so that I can fly for an hour =)

Silly?

Tuesday night

Sitting in our bedroom, taking five minutes to catch my breath. Business off today is painting, the wall and ceiling. It's tough on the shoulders and hands but GD it looks great!

Any one wanna land a hand!?

They Are Back

Its been a while since they last "walked" among us. But finally the night has come for an 90 minutes season premiere of  "The Walking Dead". So stayed tuned at 9/8c!

Saturday

So Its Saturday, my day off, hallelujah! =) I was wondering if I should get started on the upstairs bedroom (renovations) or if I should get started outside while´st its "good weather".

I really would love to finish this little project before winter comes. What ya think? I made this two weeks ago with a chainsaw. Felt like a good Jason from Friday the 13th =)

Gravity

Its a sad day for Apple and the rest of the world.
My thoughts goes out to his family and friends.

Today, one apple, in the tree of life, has defied gravity and reached for the heavens.

Iphone 4S

So there isnt going to be a Iphone 5 just yet?

However they did release Iphone 4S.
Im not that overly pleased, as I had hoped for a little bit more..

Anyways, here is a picture!



Edit: Just watched the presentation of Siri -  and that makes me interested. With my (poor) memory and the help of Siri my (poor) memory is in "Siri"ous trouble!

Going International for a while

Thought that I would go International for a while. Just to practice my spelling etc etc.

My previous post declared that my Iphone is broken, witch sucks, offcourse. However bad that might be, Im not to hung up on it. But Donations are accepted inorder to by myself a new!  JK!

Now its Saturday nigth and I think the season premiere of Supernatural is on!

Sojnes!
