Running is more than just a sport for me \u2013 it\u2019s a passion, a way of life and constantly pushing my limits. My goal is to finish all six
\n (finishing seventh in Sydney is not currently required to win a medal)<\/span>
\n<\/span> prestigious World Marathon Majors<\/strong>, and each new finish is a new story that I want to share. <\/p>\n

How did my marathon journey begin?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

My adventure with running began with short distances and local road races. Over time, the distances grew, and so did the ambitions. The marathon became a natural goal, and after my first completed race of 42.195 km<\/g>, I knew I wanted more. This is how the idea of \u200b\u200bwinning the Six Star Finisher medal <\/strong>was born, i.e. completing all seven World Marathon Majors marathons. <\/p>\n

World Marathon Majors \u2013 the ultimate challenge<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The World Marathon Majors<\/strong> series includes seven of the most prestigious marathons in the world:
\ud83c\udfc1 Tokyo Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 a start in the heart of Japan, with a unique atmosphere of fans.
\ud83c\udfc1 Boston Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 the oldest marathon in the world, which requires qualification.
\ud83c\udfc1 London Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 a city where sport combines with history and a unique charitable atmosphere.
\ud83c\udfc1 Berlin Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 a fast, flat course where world records are regularly broken.
\ud83c\udfc1 Chicago Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 The Windy City that attracts thousands of runners and fans.
\ud83c\udfc1 New York City Marathon<\/strong> \u2013 one of the largest marathons in the world, which runs through five boroughs of the city.
\ud83c\udfc1 Sydney Marathon <\/strong>\u2013 a new member of the series that opens up challenges for runners on a completely new continent.<\/p>\n

Each of these races is a different story, different emotions and different challenges. Adjusting strategy, weather conditions and physical preparation for each route is the key to success. <\/p>\n

Why am I sharing my knowledge?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Running changes lives \u2013 it teaches perseverance, patience and gives great satisfaction. I want to share my experiences to help other runners realize their dreams. On my website you will find: <\/p>\n

\u2705 Practical training tips <\/strong>\u2013 how to effectively prepare for a marathon, how to avoid injuries and how to plan your recovery.
\u2705 Marathon reports<\/strong> \u2013 personal experiences, thoughts and tips to help you prepare better for the start.
\u2705 Logistics guides<\/strong> \u2013 how to sign up for the WMM marathon, where to look for the best accommodation and how to plan your budget for the trip.
\u2705 Motivation to run<\/strong> \u2013 every runner has moments of doubt, but shared passion and inspiration from others help you persevere in your resolutions.<\/p>\n

How can you join my community?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you are interested in running, planning to run a marathon or just looking for inspiration \u2013 I invite you to follow my website and social media. Together we can build a running community that supports and motivates each other! <\/p>\n
