RtNP#47 Approaching Christmas

This was recorded on a winter run in the beginning of this month and as usual it took me much too long to edit and upload. I barely managed to get it ready before Christmas but here it is, with the margin of only a few days. 

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season!

The Moment is Now

My daughter made a winter video. The actor might not be very talented but there are some beautiful images from a pleasant December afternoon.

RtNP#46 Discipline

Once again an episode that took me much too long to get ready and upload - sorry- but here it is. This was recorded on a grey, windy autumn day. I don't think you will be bothered by the grey and dark but the wind might be a bit disturbing in some parts of the recording.

RtNP#45 Multitasking

It is with mixed emotions that I greet autumn. I'm not so fond of wet and chilly weather and I fear the darkness that arrives with the shorter days but I enjoy the beautiful clear and sunny days when there still is some warmth and the air is crisp. This episode was recorded on one of the good autumn days. It was, in fact, a perfect day. You can see just how perfect on the photos here.

RtNP#44 Poetic Headlines

Autumn is here, a dark and wet season with colds and lack of inspiration. Nevertheless I managed to pull myself together and edit a recording that had been awaiting  further processing. Part of the recording turned out to be broken but here is the audible part of it, in which I talk about
 cancelled race plans, how great I think Dailymile is, some wild as well as domestic animals including a rabbit update.. among other things.

RtNP#43 Horseflies

Here is another episode of unstructured nonsense, spoken in a slightly unfocused manner. - A rather ordinary episode.
The weather was nice during my run though, but that is perhaps a little difficult to share in audio.

Some subjects that I tried to share is:
 a memory from the past that I might have told you in earlier episodes but is brought to my mind every time I run this special trail.
 an on going invasion of slimy creatures.
 and I'll let you in on an idea which slowly is taking shape in my head.

RtNP#42 Liberty Loco

Sorry about the delay but here it is - finally - the Liberty Loco episode of this podcast.

I was fortunate to be part of the Liberty Loco event that Peter of the Spikes podcast organized in the middle of June and I have put together a number of audio clips from the event but I wish that conditions had been a bit better. Strong wind, rain and talking at a distance to the microphone doesn't make the ideal circumstances for recording. I've tried my best to make the recorded material audible but it contains a good deal of wind noise and audio levels are uneven. You have now been warned.
I hope that you through the noise can hear what a great time we had as we ran the Liberty Loco with joy.

RtNP#41 Fairy Encounter

While running and recording this audio I had an odd experience, somehing that I still don't have a resonable explanation to. If you, after listening to my somewhat vague description of what I saw, have a suggestion to what it might have been, I would be very pleased if you would let me know your theory.

RtNP#40 Spring Season

Spring is arriving in the northern hemisphere and have now reached as far as the Narrow Path area.

In fact spring has been around for a little while and this episode was recorded on a nice and warm day some weeks ago but I've had difficulties finding the time to prepare and upload the audio, sorry. Even if days are getting longer they never seem to be long enough for all the things that has to be done and there is usually very little time left for the fun things I want to do. I hope to be better organized for the next episode. Running and exercise are going great though.

Please "spring"/run with me on this spring-run and...
(a somewhat cryptic sentence perhaps, but listen to the audio and you might get an explanation)

Please "spring"/run with me on this spring-run and, among other things, I'll tell you some of what spring means to me.

RtNP#39 Watching the Sky

This was recorded a few weeks ago, sorry about the delay, on my first Forest Run this season and if only the weather stays the same, or perhaps even better, you and I can expect many more to come. It looks like 2012 will be a good year running wise.

RtNP#38 Lightheaded

After a few technical issues I now hope it will be possible to download and listen to this episode.

First there was a bit of uneven audio levels in the recording that I had to fix, and even if I did my best, the level is still a little up and down. Hope you can put up with that.
Next issue I faced was a problem with the hosting service and I had to go through a new learning process to figure out how to deal with that. Without the help I got from Nigel and the Podcast Nuggets site I'm not sure that there would have been an episode at all. Thanks Nigel!

So, in this episode you can join me for a very pleasant winter run and you can also hear me talk about my first experience running with a proper headlamp.

RtNP#37 Low Clouds

 HAPPY NEW YEAR

and welcome to a new season of running and podcasting. This is a recording from my first run in 2012, a run that I really enjoyed and if my running for the rest of the year will be only half as good I'll be very pleased.

The music in this episode is a bit different from what I usually play but I hope you like it. This time it's from a concert that I wish I had been able to attend.
