Рождественские ярмаркипроходят по месяцу по всей Германии. В это время весь центр украшается, чуть ли не до каждогопнядерева/куста. Окна магазинов и домов подсвечены разными гирляндами, свечами и игрушками. Большие моллы – это просто произведение «украшательского искусства». Глинтвейн льетсярекойбочками/цистернами. Едят сосиски, стейки, сладости, снова пьют глювайн. ( Read more... ) С Наступающим, сообщники-путешественники!

My Christmas present to myself? A very short 1.3 mile run.
I've been staying with my bf all month and haven't run since late November! So while he was napping off a stomach ache I grabbed my shoes outta my car and got some air! Sadly I noticed a bit of my endurance was gone, but it felt good.
Now that I feel a bit more comfortable with this city and found a route I might like, I'm getting back on the wagon :)
I'm sending encouraging thoughts to those who've been slacking with me!
Гамбург, подсвеченный по случаю проведения Рождественских ярмарок красив! Покажу его ночным, а также мы прогуляемся по "сексуальной" улице и поднимемся в самый модный бар 20UP!
HO! HO! HO! (PIMP!) Good morning runners and Merry Christmas (to those of you who celebrate it, for everyone else -- Merry Last Friday in 2009)! Here's the daily training thread!
Yesterday's neighborhood nine miler was fantastic. And I procrastinated long enough that I actually DID get a chance to see lots of Christmas lights along my route. Today I'll be opening some presents shortly and then giving myself a present -- 12 miles, my first double digit run since November 8th! This is also something of a tradition, my '12 miles of Christmas' run.
So what is everyone else doing today, training and otherwise?
Question! What did you find underneath your tree/in your stocking/wherever this morning? Or, what do you HOPE to find there? (Again, for those here who don't do the Christmas thing... what WOULD you want to find if you DID have a Christmas tree?)
Wherever you are and whatever you celebrate this time of year, I hope it's all very very merry for all you here in runners !
Discuss... and MERRY CHRISTMAS (AND HAPPY RUNNING)!
Когда это фотоаппарат попал ко мне в руки, я захотела ехать в путешествие еще больше прежнего. Дело в его цвете и размере, он уже был залогом успешного отдыха, тк сам по себе красив и привлекает своим внешним видом окружающих,удивленные взгляды встречались повсюду.
Это большой праздник! Со слов местного населения они и правда ждут этого времени, когда можно будет на полных основаниях веселиться хоть каждый день после работы, пить глинтвейн и балдеть. Делу время, а потехе час, но если уж потеха, то вот так масштабно и красиво. Ярмарка идет до Рождества и как нам сказали местные немцы, сразу после 25 декабря ёлка выбрасывается, а украшения убираются. Все четко:))) А ведь у нас и до 8 марта елка может простоять, если о ней не вспомнить, а что – красиво же и уместно: Православное Рождество, Старый новый год и т.п.
This year's card. Brought to you by my mother's collection of Santas (you can see a very, VERY small sampling of her grand collection here), and Millions of Cats - Wanda Gág in 1928 (Great children's book, one of my favs)
Anyone new to my list, this is a tradition I've been doing for a few years now. I draw up a card, mail out a handful of them to family and friends. 2008 2007 2006 2005 2004
В небольшом помещении, которое раньше и служило, вероятно, складским расположили некую историю специй, баночки-скляночки разных видов и стран. В Музее как написано в буклете более 900 экспонатов, отражающих историю специй более пяти столетий.
Soo.. today is officially four weeks since my last run (Turkey Trot 10k on an injured leg). I'm not sure what was wrong with my leg; maybe a shin splint, or a baby stress fracture, or some kind of pulled muscle, but since a month ago, I haven't been able to make it more than a quarter mile without awful pain - and I had been running 15-17 miles for each week's long run beforehand. SAD.
Anyway, today I wrapped my leg and put on my very first pair of tennis shoes - they are SUPER heavy stability shoes, but I figured better safe than sorry. And I made it two miles! Unfortunately after four weeks off, two miles FELT like two miles in a not-so-good way, but still! I've really missed my stress release from running so it felt great to get out and go again. And - bonus - it's much more satisfying to run than to give dirty looks to all the runners you pass while bitter and unable to run. Ahem.
I'm going to try for another short beach run tomorrow. YAY! And to everyone who is injured, best of luck recovering. Imagine how great it will feel when you're back out there. Happy running, everyone!
Good morning runners! Here's the daily training thread!
I put a major dent in my sleep debt last night, getting about 9 hours collectively and I feel pretty refreshed this morning. After a hearty bowl of oatmeal, I'm going to do something like 9 miles around my hometown, checking out Christmas decorations in the process (I'd wait til evening so I can see the lights but 1- I really wanna run now and 2- it's gonna be less icy in the daytime). There's also this CrossFit WOD (Deadlifts 1-10-1-20-1-30 reps) that looks mighty inviting.
So what is everyone else up to today, training and otherwise?
Question! Seeing as how it's Christmas eve after all, Santa's coming (as The Boss informs us below) so have you been naughty or nice this year? Me? I think everyone knows that answer.
Что может быть прекраснее, чем ожидание самого желанного праздника в году? Первый снег, веселье, нарядные витрины магазинов, улыбающиеся лица друзей в мишуре и огоньках электрических гирлянд, разноцветная обертка для подарков, новогодние украшения и елки, твои наряды и вечеринки.
