In this post I will discuss what people say to me regarding my running habit. It is also an excellent introspective into their level of intelligence. Unfortunately, since there is so many negative examples I must conclude that overall collective intellect of common folks in Croatia, and even faculty educated, doesn’t look good. Rare areContinue reading “What people say to me about running”

Just a matter of time
I live here in Croatia, Zagreb, in a suburb, for a 42 years now. I know how the things role. You have no peace for training or anything. Ethnic gangs and religious fundamentalists interfere with everything decent. Yesterday I was walking back 10km from my job as a part of my daily long distance training.Continue reading “Just a matter of time”
Few words about my nutrition
Hard training depletes body energy reserves and stresses physiology much more than usual human behaviour. That is why we need to take extra nutrients or so called suplements. I take vitamin C 500mg every day. If I feel cold or too stressed I even take 1000 mg daily – 500mg in the morning and 500mgContinue reading “Few words about my nutrition”

My running shoes status
This is the only running shoes I have at my disposal right now. Both pair are in the state of almost falling apart. I didn’t renew my running shoes for years. At the end of week #4 I will go online and order pair or two of new running shoes.
End of week 3
It is end of my training week #3 and I will write new post as promised. In the mean time, I had an idea for buying running shoes – I will order online since the regular shops are closed due to corona pandemic. I also transformed my initial plan for week 3 from both runningContinue reading “End of week 3”

Tempo of both walking and running is above normal but not fast. In the followingContinue reading “My running diary”
Moja trkačka kronologija
“MOJA TRKAČKA KRONOLOGIJA” – FELJTON by Gurkha Maratonac, 1. DIO: Počeo sam se baviti trčanjem 2000. Tada sam imao 22 godine a glavni razlog je bio prestanak pušenja. Pušio sam otprilike 5 g., dnevno pola kutije, počevši u trećem razredu srednje. Čitao sam da trčanje pomaže u odvikavanju od pušenja i to se pokazalo točnim.Continue reading “Moja trkačka kronologija”
