Croatia 2021: Sljemenski marathon, July 18

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOcEhQ-X3fk I'm writting this one year later. Today is the "celebration" of my first spraint ankle, which was the moment when my running mania started to go down. I didn't realize it then, since it was the first time something like that ever happened to me, but from there on I even stopped writing on … Continue reading Croatia 2021: Sljemenski marathon, July 18

Romania 2021: Rodnei Sky Race, 3 July

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2frTFKwfY04&t=19s Is my third time participating this race. First time, 2018 for the long course - 26k, second time 2019 for the shorter course - 16k and this year, even though I felt brave enough and signed for the long one again, the weather as so bad that officially they had to cancel the 26k … Continue reading Romania 2021: Rodnei Sky Race, 3 July

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

Romania 2019: Cindrel Marathon, in Paltinis, Sibiu. My first 40k, 100 races anniversary

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=knWWlumKMgY&feature=youtu.be I like to keep my running stories short. But this post will be a little longer. Also the video is also longer than the rest of my videos. All this, because the race itself was longer. 2xlonger. Like never before 🙂 This is a story about how I lost my marathon virginity on top … Continue reading Romania 2019: Cindrel Marathon, in Paltinis, Sibiu. My first 40k, 100 races anniversary

Romania 2019: Rodnei Skyrace, Borsa MM

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOXatxqQ6j4&t=19s Rodnei Skyrace 2019 Last year I ran this race for my birtday: 26k on the last day of 26 years old. And because of that, I wanted to skip it this year. https://runtheworld.blog/2018/07/24/romania-2018-rodnei-skyrace-21st-july-maramures-county/ Then on second thought...I told myself "why not?" , therefore I signd up for the shorter course this time: 17 km … Continue reading Romania 2019: Rodnei Skyrace, Borsa MM

Romania 2019: Maraton Apuseni, MSG Systems, 25.05

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

Romania 2018: Gorun Trail, Mercheasa 27.10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cu5Wa4F3VXA&feature=youtu.be Ever since I saw this race I knew it has to be on my bucket list. So I signed up for the longest race (30km) without planning how will I even get there. I just knew I will find a way. And so I did. I'm always excited when there's a race I've never been … Continue reading Romania 2018: Gorun Trail, Mercheasa 27.10

Romania 2018: Rodnei Skyrace, 21st July (Maramures county)

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)

Romania 2018: Bate Toaca Marathon, Ceahlau Vertical Race

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
