FIRST MARATHON IN THE BOOKS!
Time 4:04:31
Pace 5:45/km
Distance 42.51km
A year ago, running a full marathon felt impossible. This year alone, I ran 1,656 km. To put that in perspective, between 2014 and 2024, I ran a total of 1,100 km, and before this year, I had never run more than 15 km at a time. I ran my first half-marathon in February, went sub-2 in May, and recently completed my first full marathon. I didn’t hit my sub-4 goal, but I gave it everything and learned so much along the way. I’m especially grateful for the support of my wife and family, who encouraged me every step of the way. I hope this shows that with grit (and a lot of free time, lol), seemingly impossible goals can be reached.
