https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc6WDYqQaaY This was my third time running at the Mataton Apuseni and the first time I get to write about it. The first ones were in 2015-2016, those good old times where I had more time to train, not writing on blogs 😀 Since that first time, it became one of my favourite races in … Continue reading Romania 2019: Maraton Apuseni, MSG Systems, 25.05
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoI9C76ACn8&t=5s Officially, the first spring race this year! After 3 winter trail runs and minus some degrees, spring has finally arrived in Brasov. Semi Maratonul Brasovului 2019 It was sunny, there were flowers, even some traces of snow, but just enough to enhance the contrast. I think that's why I felt so energized: I was … Continue reading Romania 2019: Semimaraton Intersport Brasov, 06.04
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WB72MrawWYw&t=9s Some people say I travel too much. I say it's all about priorities and time&money management. I work in order to live, just like everybody else, and I live because I feed my passions. Being alive means so much more than surviving. I choose to live in a world of marathons and vacations. It's … Continue reading Italy 2018: Verona (Half)Marathon, 18.11.2018
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0JYzffTMZY&t=20s Once again, I took part of what I've sworn I would never do. This race made me drop dead last year and I really meant when I wrote: ".. is not for everyone, definitely not for me. While I was climbing the rocks and praying for the finish line, I swore to myself that … Continue reading Romania 2018: Retezat Marathon, Rausor skijump
https://youtu.be/Y1DUlaYGMt4 Do you know the "running your age on your birthday" cliche? Well, I unintentionally almost did it. I ran the age I had one day before my birthday. Or like normal people would explain it: I ran 26k on my last day at 26. Coincidence: Rodnei Skyrace took place this year on 21st of … Continue reading Romania 2018: Rodnei Skyrace, 21st July (Maramures county)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOZ22gqVY00 This was about to be my first (almost) marathon, a 38k skyrace. Neither was planned to happen or pictured it would be like this, but there I was: with my brand new rain jacket and the recommended equipment, staring at the falling rain, after deciding to participate 3 days before. That feeling when you … Continue reading Romania 2018: Bate Toaca Marathon, Ceahlau Vertical Race
This is about a race I decided to join 2 days before. I had no plans for the weekend and I started googling races nearby. I found Bichigiu Halfmarathon in Bistrita, a fund rising race for a family, 2h away from Cluj. One post on facebook about a ride there and done. My weekend was … Continue reading Romania 2018: Bichigiu Halfmarathon, 9th June
https://youtu.be/e5hZDj0mUCE Well look at that..I crossed the ocean again and ended up in Rio de Janeiro. HOW did that happen? Oh that's right: I bought a plane ticket because I wanted to run the Wings for Life World Race on a different territory.  P.S. This was last year, Florida: https://runtheworld.blog/2017/05/08/florida-2017-wings-for-life-world-run-sunrise-fl/ Each time the month of May … Continue reading Brasil 2018: Wings for Life Rio de Janeiro
Hey ya'll! How you doing? How's your training going? Mine not so good, I've been a little lazy. But I'll talk about that later. It was about time to add another road race, right? Too many trail runs lately, so this local international half marathon came in perfectly. So I put my Darth Vader costume … Continue reading Romania 2018: 8th WizzAir Marathon Cluj-Napoca
https://youtu.be/4_W-VmXh65o This is a race I signed up for the first time. Usually during that weekend there are 3-4 other big races and this year I chose a new challenge: Harghita Trail Running. The race is on the holy mountain of the Szeklers (ro: secui), Harghita Madaras, a mind-clearing run for trail lovers, among eruptive … Continue reading Romania 2017: Harghita Trail Running
