Running
I run. Trail running and marathons. Long distances in the mountains.
Trail running
Most of my running happens on trails. Mountains, forests, technical terrain. I prefer the quiet of the trails to the roads.
Marathons
Road marathons taught me pacing and consistency. Trail races taught me that the terrain dictates the rhythm.
Xiamen UTMB 100km
March 2, 2025I finished the UTMB 100km in Xiamen. One of the hardest things I have done. The race reinforced what I already knew: preparation compounds, patience matters, and the mind decides when the body wants to stop.
Training philosophy
Consistent training over heroic efforts. Gradual build-up. Respect for rest. Nutrition as part of the plan. Mental resilience built through long runs.
