CaliVita 7 Deserts

Nota: “Are you crazy? Are you happy?” erau cuvintele cu care directorul cursei, Jerome ne intampina la startul si finishul fiecarei etape. Dupa cateva zile incepusem sa cred ca “Am I stupid?” 🙂 In ultimii doi ani am avut privilegiul de a alerga la unele dintre cele mai frumoase si dificile curse multi etapa, de […]

RO version -> here “I wish the world was twice as big – and half of it was still unexplored” – Sir David Attenborough. I was attracted by the idea of running on all seven continents from the very first moment when the thought shyly came into my mind. It was love at first sight, […]

For English -> here “Mi-as fi dorit ca lumea sa fie de doua ori mai mare si jumatate din ea sa fie inca neexplorata” – Sir David Attenborough. Ideea de a alerga pe toate cele sapte continente m-a atras din momentul in care primul gand si-a facut loc timid in mintea mea. A fost ca […]

RO version ->  There is so much to say about the South-American adventure that I don’t even know what to start with: the trip, the fairy-tale-like destination, the difficult but amazing race, the people I met and I shared the tent with for a week. All these are like the pieces in a puzzle, whose […]

RO version ->  Now that I returned to Romania, and cold finally got out of my bones after a few days here where it’s warm, I’m trying to rewind the movie of events that took place in Iceland. And I’m glad I allowed a few days to pass by, otherwise you would only hear these […]

For English -> Sunt atat de multe de spus despre aventura sud-americana incat nici nu stiu cu ce sa incep mai intai: calatoria, locul absolut de poveste in care am aterizat, cursa foarte dificila dar extrem de frumoasa, oamenii pe care i-am intalnit si cu care am impartit acoperisul cortului timp de o saptamana. Toate […]

For English -> Acum, ca am ajuns de cateva zile inapoi in Romania, la caldura, si mi-a iesit frigul din oase, incerc sa derulez filmul evenimentelor petrecute in Islanda. Si ma bucur ca am lasat sa treaca putin timp pentru ca daca as fi scris imediat dupa terminarea cursei probabil ca ati fi auzit doar […]

Bine v-am regasit dragilor. Scriu aceste randuri si nu imi vine sa cred cat de repede trece timpul. In luna septembrie a anului trecut terminam Grand to Grand Ultra (povestea aici), cei 273km de alergare din desertul Arizona in Statele Unite, a treia cursa din circuitul CaliVita 7 Deserts, si ma gandeam la vremea respectiva […]

RO version ->  It’s been awhile since I returned from the United States, but the images, feelings, sounds, colors and practically all items that are part of this puzzle of a memorable experience are still so fresh in my mind that I can still feel the heat and the scorching sand under my feet, the […]

For English -> A trecut ceva timp de cand m-am intors din Statele Unite, insa imaginile, senzatiile, sunetele, culorile si practic tot ceea ce compun puzzleul unei experiente memorabile, imi sunt inca atat de proaspete in minte incat parca pot simti caldura si nisipul fierbinte sub picioare, frigul cumplit al noptilor instelate pe marginea Marelui […]
