Welcome to a new beginning, a fresh start on the journey where every stride tells a story. I'm Damir, your guide and fellow traveler on this path of rediscovery and growth. Today, I'm not just sharing my story; I'm opening a chapter where we all find our pace again, together.
Five weeks ago, amidst the calm of our summer retreat, I faced a truth many of us encounter but few dare to confront: the challenge of starting over. Strapping on my running shoes after years felt like a blend of nostalgia and new beginnings. At 35, the roads felt different, and so did I. This wasn't just about running; it was about reclaiming a part of myself that I thought was lost to time.
Embracing this journey meant setting sights on a tangible goal-the half marathon in September. With 28 weeks ahead, the walk/run method became my mantra, a balanced approach to regain stamina and joy in each step. This method wasn't just a training routine; it was a metaphor for how to approach life's restarts-gradually, with patience and resilience.
This channel was born from a desire for accountability, a beacon to light the way not just for me but for anyone looking to find their stride again. Here, we're not just runners; we're storytellers, sharing the ups and downs of getting back on track.
For those at the starting line, unsure or perhaps a bit intimidated, here's what I've learned:
Embrace where you are. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and that step is worth celebrating.
Set realistic goals. A half marathon, a local 5K, or just a lap around the block-let your ambition be your guide, not your burden.
The walk/run method is your friend. It's the handshake between your present capabilities and future aspirations.
Find your community. Whether it's fellow runners, family, or an online forum, shared journeys are always lighter.
Subscribe and join me on this adventure, where every day is an opportunity to grow, to challenge ourselves, and to rediscover the joy in the journey. Together, let's make every step count.
