Romania 2021: Cross Hoia Fortech, 27 June

Here's a race with a twist: a twisted ankle :))) I've been injured 3 weeks ago and even though I've done everything by the book at first, rest was no longer the answer for me. The pain was still there, but I signed up for this race before the ankle incident, so there was no … Continue reading Romania 2021: Cross Hoia Fortech, 27 June

https://youtu.be/VNNxYlMM97M Oh, the holly race! The one that used to be a freezing hell..

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?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lsNnJKZzeRg&t=20s Well here's something new this year: running in Debrecen, Hungary.

Florida 2017: Miami Marathon, 29th January

I can't even explain the things I felt the day before the race when I went to Miami to pick up my race kit.
