After weeks of preparation and anticipation, the day has come to wake up at 4 am with a big grin on my face. Not every day one can ran on the Harbour Bridge. Another race, another morning of pain and happiness. I ran the Auckland Marathon and it took 3 hours and 50 minutes.
Last Sunday, after months of preparation I’ve finished my first marathon distance race. My plan was to get to the finish line in 3:45. It took 14 minutes longer though, but I’m still really happy to do it below 4 hours. Here is what I’ve learned.
Triathlon is more than just a sport. It truly is a way to live.
I went from an overweight smoker spending my life in front of the computer to a vegan Ironman triathlete. Through triathlon I found out what life can be. Now I want to help others in finding the best version of themselves.
