Chester Half Marathon. Great vibes, great weather great atmosphere and running among 8 thousand strangers with different ages and fitness abilities all running for their own reason, all united to accomplish something that we put our own mind and soul into.
To me first ever Half marathon ✅
First longest run ever.
First dedicated 10 week running program plan with
First Very stable pace on the longest run.
PB on 10k from 57:12 to 54:36
2nd run of 2026 in Chester ✅
I guess Metric Marathon could be next to tick ✔️ tat triple year.
Today among 8 thousand people atmarathon.half.10k.tri I completed my first ever Half Marathon, distance I’ve never ever thought of, I would even consider to run.
with all my injuries, since childhood tendon strain under left knee, broken 3 fingers on left arm in primary school.
Then chipped meniscus on right knee in college - they told me I can’t forget about playing basketball.
Later here in uk herniated disc on spine and surgery ( at the age of 25 )
It all lead to this moment to be trying to be better person, wiser with food choices, stopping smoking, rarely drinking focusing on being at my personal best challenging myself and my body with whatever comes to my mind.
Finding peace in running, something I can enjoy in busy schedules among day job and side hustle of djing and making music.
Thanks to 10week to Half program it felt achievable with the right mindset flexible plan and dedication.
“What comes next will be marvellous “ I’m 40 next year and this feels like this it’s only a beginning.
