The year 2018 starts to wrap itself up and the competition calendar starts to run out. There is only one competition left \u2013 Saaremaa three days run.<\/p>\n

Last year was the first year for me to participate there and this event made very good impression on me. Good memories from last year pretty much nailed this competition to my calendar. Saarenaa is the last chance to beat my current record.<\/p>\n

First day<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On my way to Saaremaa my nerves were pretty tense so the idea of having a nap did not come to practice. \u2013 Usually I sleep like a child. When I got there I took my number out and sat off to my place to stay in order to prepare myself for the run. The commotion inside me grew more before the start. Usually it is a good thing because it brings a little adrenalin and it is fun.
\nThe first start pistol did not sound right but the second was more like it so the first day of my this year\u2019s last running competition had started.<\/p>\n

I had ran few hundred meters when fellow member Henno was running next to me. He suggested the idea to run in tempo 4:20. It was suitable for me although after 4-th kilometer Henno went on his own. I was speeding up as much as possible. \u2013 I was able to raise the tempo even two kilometers before the finish line. Big thanks to Henno because he was a big help to me. The finish time was 00:43:03 which is also my new personal record running 10 kilometers. But \u201cone fly has to be in the ointment\u201d and this is the 3 seconds. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
