2X2. When started to write here after many, many years I was in Hungary and didn’t met too many runs with ascent, despite running a lot. Ironically… It is ironic that also I have started to go running on mountains, in 2017, before actually going on a serious mountain hike. In fact, I did only…

Going for the PB Half-Marathon – 1st of December 2021, Titan Park
2021 didn’t seem a year for records in terms of running, given that I am not a fast runner anyway. Still, one day, I’ve went to a crazy 1:33 half-marathon, even though I wasn’t planning anything and that moment I’ve realized that I actually can go below 1:30 on the half-marathon. Truth being said, my…
The Speed Project Diary, episode 1
I know that what I have faced was called The Speed Project Do It Yourself, the virtual version of the great 550 kilometers run between LA and Vegas, but my reality is no virtual stuff at all. I mean, I felt for months the live pain in my right knee after the… wonderful experience. And…
1 year. 353 running days. 5.254 kilometers
Well, things are progressing. The COVID-19 pandemic is still here, but got used to it. On 19th of March 2020 I flew back from Bucharest to Budapest. Alone in the plane! In that same evening I’ve started running after a three days break. I didn’t stop a single day until 11th of… December! 268 days…
You don’t need special shoes to run! 6.000+ km story of Kalenji
Look very carefully at the picture. This ordinary Kalenji Ekiden Trail shoes gathered more than 6.000 kilometers! I don’t know to tell you exactly how many, because I never thought, when I have started using them, that they will be so long in service. Though, the motive is simple. When I’ve been relocated to Budapest…
5.062 kilometers for 2020
I was thinking short how my first post here, for 2021 should look like… Nothing to mention from this new year in terms of sports as only few days passed. But I know for sure that the numbers reached in 2020 won’t be matched in 2021. Not because I cannot do it again, but I…
First Marathon: Budapest – Esztergom. Not for me!
At adidas Runners Budapest I have met Laszlo. Even though he’s Hungarian, he was born in Cluj-Napoca and speaks Romanian fluently, of course. He runs great, but with long pauses in time. Never ever ran a marathon and now the idea keeps him more awake than ever.
When your mind is lazy, you cannot fulfill anything
OK, the right title for this should have been that I was a lazy cunt and couldn’t break my half marathon record in September 2020. But because of the joke called political correctness, I prefer to leave it here. Fact: on 6th of September I took part at Wizz Air Budapest Half Marathon. My best…
A dream that needs to come true: 10K under 40 minutes
NATO run is a nice event held in Budapest so considering it would have been my last from this city I gave it a shot on 18th of October 2020. One day before I have ran a beautiful 22K in Tihany, but at a quite steady pace, 4:52 / kilometer. I know my limits and…
Running a Marathon in a beautiful city – Budapest
Some time ago I’ve decided to use running as an ‘excuse’ to travel more. So, running marathons all around Europe, in the first place, can work very good. Berlin was on my bucket list and I have completed this on a September rainy day in 2019. 3:39:03. Not great, not bad. Just decent. I had…
