RUNNING

Distance became routine.

The part I am proudest of is not one long run. It is reaching the point where showing up, running again and making 10 km feel normal became part of everyday life.

WHAT RUNNING BECAME

The real progress was turning difficult distance into normal work.

10 km became normal

The important shift was not chasing one huge distance. Repeated runs around 10 km became a normal training session, which changed my idea of what my body could handle.

Consistency beat one-offs

My longest running streak is six consecutive days, reached three separate times. That matters more to me than one isolated performance because it shows the work could be repeated.

Volume compounded

By 20 September 2026, the year alone had reached 899 recorded kilometres across 98 runs. The distance came from repetition, not a single challenge.

CONSISTENCY IN PRACTICE

September 2026

One six-day streak, one five-day streak, then another five-day streak — with rest days separating the blocks.

20 SEPTEMBER 2026

15.06 km — the longest recorded run so far.

I finished it in 1:35:27 with an average heart rate of about 140 bpm and roughly 1,101 active calories. It came at the end of a five-day running streak, which is exactly why I value it: the longest distance arrived on top of repeated work.
