Running has been a passion of mine for over a decade. I love running in the mountains, but Poznań, where I live, is so flat that street running also plays an important role in my training.
In 2021, my main mountain races were the Ultramarathon in the Izery Mountains (51 km and 1,064 m elevation gain) and the Golden Marathon during the Lower Silesian Mountain Running Festival (45 km and 2,041 m elevation gain).
In 2022, I once again participated in the Lower Silesian Mountain Running Festival; this time, I challenged myself with the Golden Half Marathon (21 km and 1,000 m elevation gain) and managed to exceed my expectations by running faster than anticipated.
In 2023, I ran over 3,100 km but did not compete due to an injury.
In 2024, I opened my running season in Alicante, Spain, on February 18. It was a hilly street half-marathon, and I achieved a new personal best: 1h28min42sek, placing 77th out of 1,259 runners in the open category. In March, I ran in a 10km street race, setting a new personal best: 39min12sec. In May, I ran the Migotka (Gontyniec Ultra Trail, 26km, 700m up), and I finished the run in 5th place (second place in the M40 category). I June, I enjoyed a lot participating in the “Bieg Wierchami” race from Slovakia to Poland in the Beskid Sądecki mountains. It was a very technical race with a lot of fun over 60km (2200m elevation gain). A month later, I finished DFGB UltraTrail 70km (3000m elevation gain). In October, I ran 45km (first leg) as part of a 140km relay in the UltraKotlina race. Our relay team took second place.
