Boglands

Before moving to Västerbotten in 2014, I do not think I had ever run through boglands. Mud for sure but this particular subarctic form of wetland or “myrmark” was something I was not familiar with from where I grew up in Kalmar, and obviously even less so from Melbourne or Seoul. With Grössjön and its vast surrounding boglands just south of our house, I have become quite fond of this form of running as it is very gentle on the legs yet still helps building strength. Only downside is that it takes a bit of time to clean the shoes (and myself) afterwards.
