Runner

"Not so long ago, people who didn't believe in barefoot running got eaten." 

Running is mostly fun for me. It helps me to relax and to stop thinking. I especially enjoy running barefoot on warm grass under a scorching sun, exploring new places, and listening sounds of nature (I never wear headphones!). Running got me into memorable situations, celebrated with me my birthdays and introduced me a lot of interesting people. Moreover, it allowed me to commute for free (14 km daily in Lancaster) and improved my fitness level a lot. So much that I even unexpectedly won some races (although only very local ones).

Racing 

I am not a big fan of racing. I hate the necessary commuting and stress before a race. But the feeling afterwards more than compensates these issues. I haven't run many races, but despite that I have still managed to achieve some successes. Some of my biggest achievements are:

42km (trail) - 3:14:51 (SAAR challenge half 2018) 

• 1st in the category, 1st overall 

21km (flat) - 1:24:23 (Pardubice half-marathon 2018)  

• 57th in the category, 83rd overall 

21km (trail) - 1:27:07 (SAAR challenge short 2017)

• 1st in the category, 2nd overall 

15km (cross) - 1:02:00 (Pernstejn 15 2017)

• 1st in the category, 3rd overall

10km (trail) - 39:02 (Monako small prize 2018) 

• 2nd in the category, 7th overall
