Imme Skinfaxe Debut Double Stroll 2012


Gliding away across almost completely still
waters. Avedøre Power Station and the southernmost of the
two Kalvebod Bridges are seen ahead
Name: Imme Skinfaxe Debut Double Stroll 2012
Route: Home-Sydhavnen-home
Participants: Hein
Date: 19 JUN 2012
Distance: 12.7 km (6.4 + 6.3, divided by two hours of square rig sailing)
Time: 1:40 hours (51 minutes + 49 minutes)
Average speed: 7.6 km/h

Note: Not really a march as such - according to my personal rule of a march having to be at least 10 km in one go - but there is good occasion to post a couple of photos: my first session with the viking ship Imme Skinfaxe. I write "first", because it was an experience giving a taste for more.

Getting Stuff Done March 2012


Route: Various errands around Copenhagen, none the least trying out gear for longship voyage
Participant: Hein
Date: 18 JUN 2012
Distance: 21.6 km
Time moving: 2:42 hours
Average speed: below 5 km/h; moving 7.97 km/h

The Sea Stallion - coolest longship in the world.
Got the cap made while doing other errands.
Criss-crossing Copenhagen streets and parks, I ended up in Bishops Arms. I am now less than 25 kilometres from having trained 1100 clicks this spring and thus well beyond my goal before Makoni, namely 1000. I feel ready.
