Sunday March 10th, The 2019 Barcelona Marathon, Race start: 8:30 am, in Avinguda María Cristina....



Making the final decision to run a marathon is quite a big deal, running a marathon is a serious personal challenge. You need to constantly find the motivation to keep going when others will probably recommend you give up.

Running a marathon is hard and the training sometimes is even harder.For most non-professional runners, like me, a marathon means months and months of preparation which require meticulous planning progressively longer runs.

If you have a busy agenda it will become increasingly complex to find the time of training within your daily activities.

I have learned that if you do not have a passion for what you are doing it's very hard to keep motivation high over time.

Running a marathon is a nice exercise to learn to break down what you need to do to overcome the obstacle into small steps. Literally, you can focus on one step at a time.

Once I got going, I grew to love it. It has been very nice to run in various cities around the world.
