Yesterday I was jogging in the evening. For me jogging is really good to calm down after the whole day in front of the screen.

Normally my "jogging route" is a small way to the neighbour town and back to home. The way is alongside a railroad. In the neighbour town I cross that railroad on a level-crossing and ran back.
But yesterday I decided to run on an other way. Near my home is a beautiful forest where you can see very often other joggers.
Through the forest there is a very nice pathway with some branching paths. It's really cool there and of course not so hot like directly in the sun. The floor cover is also good to run because I usually used to run on asphalt.

Well I did one big round on the big pathway through the forest and decided to run a smaller one again. So after the big round I chose an other smaller pathway. Well the smaller pathway I chose was not a good choice I realised later. At the end of the small round the path became more and more overgrown.
When I came back after the second round I immediately checked if I have some ticks on my cloths. Well I found two ticks there. Just three minutes later the first one crawled on my arm. It seems that small creature crawled to my arm when I had the hands on my legs. Really strange. But I blowed it away. The other one I found on my t-shirt. In this case I was glad I usually use long jogging trousers.
Well when I came home I checked again if I have some ticks on my body because these small creatures are often vectors of a number of diseases and the area where I live is a region at risk in this
case. I didn't found others there. Well I really don't like these small creatures.

I will go jogging there again, but next time I will definitely choose the normal pathway. Because there you don't have such problems in normal case.

Hello my friends. After such a long time I finally will blog again.

This year I decided to do more for my health. To eat more healthy food for example like more fruits. Especially a fresh fruit salad is really tasty and very healthy. Of course it's also a good food when it's hot outside like last weeks.

One of my favorite fruits are strawberries. I like these very much.
Question: Where to find really fresh strawberries now? Answer: On a
strawberry plantation. Here in my home area are some strawberry plantations. But on this day only one was opened.

Well when I picked up the first strawberries I understood why most of them were still closed.
Much strawberries on the plants were still green and therefore it took much longer as expected to pick up red ones. But that doesn't matter I thought. But anyhow some other people did the same on that day. Two basketful of strawberries were not really expensive. Definitely better than to buy it in the next supermarket.
Well at home I ate the fresh fruit salad with strawberries, banana and some pieces of an apple.
But ok ok. I admit that I bought the rest of the fruits like the banana and the apple from the supermarket. (Otherwise it would be overkill). It was a pity I didn't bought kiwi fruits there. But the result was really very tasty and yummy. I will eat it more often now instead of other things.

I also started jogging and other sports again. Well when I become more fit maybe I will join the Einstein half marathon again this year. Well for that I have much to do and I know it will be difficult to find time. But I really want to try it. Because it was much fun last year.

Best wishes,
Heiko
