Yeah, i'm gonna be gone for a week starting from this sunday.
Sunday i'll actually still be here but probably have no time to do anything, except for the big survivalrun i have to do.
Then it's a week off to Belgium on survival
Probably be back on friday night.
Getting pretty psyched for that survivalrun though.. It's gonna be tough as hell.
I'm gonna do the 10 km + over 50 obstacles, on my own. So i'll have a fieldday for self-motivation
Last year the organisation of it got punished by the Survivalrun Commite though, because it was TO damn hard.
People training multiple times a week were still dropping out by bunches, and only a select few people actually made it.
For people who dont know what a survivalrun is: It's basically an exhaustion battle for your entire body.
You'll get a minimum of 6/7 kilometres to run, and depending on the distance you'll get 30/40, 50, or even 70 obstacles to deal with.
These obstacles can be very varied, like rope-climbing over a log, hacking through a big log and carry the remainders back to another waypoint, wade through a swamp, climb under nets over water, a combination of all previously mentioned things etc. There really is no limit to what you can do (unless ofcourse it becomes totally undoable)
Then there is the end-obstacle. It's allways the biggest ***** of the bunch, the very hardest obstacles you say 'oh f*ck' at. You're allready totally exhausted, your muscles have turned to gel, and then you still have to do that thing before your finished... It takes a weird kind of mentality to do this kind of thing
