Hobbies

I'm a runner, who is trying to find personal limits in distances from 800m to marathon with personal best of  3.58 (1500m), 1:12.02 (half-marathon), 2:38:46 (marathon). Currently I'm training for longer distances especially for running a marathon around 2:35.

In addition to running I also do other sports like cycling, orienteering, cross-country skiing, swimming and sometimes even mountain running, where I participated the European Championships in 2005. I'm always delighted to give training tips to any motivated runner.
