🇵🇹 MARATHON ODYSSEY 🇳🇴
The word 'Marathon' speaks for itself: It's about running a marathon (42.195 km) a day.
The term 'Odyssey' for me represents the daily unknowns that await me on my adventure. These demand full attention to the next step. Adventure roots me and offers me the unknown. Surprises are the criterion that is anchored in every adventure, making my life precious.
My mission is to convey personal values through experiencing extraordinary adventures.

INSPIRATIon
Starting with whether I see the bottle half full or half empty. I ask myself where I can find enough water to sustain myself physically day after day. This is a key aspect often overlooked in our fast-paced, technologically advanced lives. Suddenly, it becomes my top priority once more, as I focus on being human, connecting with my surroundings, and expanding my perceptual boundaries.
MOTIVATION
The term "adventure" is often associated with children's books, evoking nostalgic memories for adults. However, children themselves are true adventurers, constantly stepping out of their comfort zones, growing rapidly, and persevering through challenges. Embracing adventure as a lifestyle offers profound lessons for personal and professional growth, yet many find it challenging to confront the unknown and draw meaningful insights from it.
MOBILIZATION
to actively engage in adventures and to commit to the unknown. It's about pooling resources, energies, and interests to experience shared adventures. I am your external mobilizer right now, urging you to leave your comfort zone, push your boundaries, and foster your personal growth. Are you in? Let's adventure together.

7700 KM
Breaking down a monumental, unimaginable goal into daily tasks. Every step leads to the next. Every marathon to the next. Navigating constant highs and lows. 7700 km from Portugal to Cape North. A physical and mental marathon odyssey across Europe.
42,195 KM/DAY
It's not about the previously unimaginable number. It's about embracing and focusing on the daily goal of 42.195 km. By doing so, I break down the total distance into manageable daily tasks, making the journey more tangible. Still sounds too crazy for you? How about this one:
21,098 KM/HALF DAY
The whole project is not about keeping to a certain pace. Rather, it's about showing how far we can run or even walk in a single day, even without much training. That's why I always keep in mind that I only have to cover 21.089 km to the next coffee in the morning and the second half in the afternoon. The journey is the goal. Step by step.

SHARING WITH THE WORLD
Driven by personal Artventures, I aim to convey awareness of the diversity in our world. My goal is to document and share my experiences. I will narrate my impressions daily via Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn and YouTube. In this way, I seek to inspire, motivate, and mobilize, making adventure accessible to everyone in this world.
WILL TO GIVE BACK
After seeing all my dreams, ideas and thoughts pass me by in 2021 due to a bone tumor in my left shoulder, I vowed to grab at least one of my many ideas with my hands from then on, never let go and "get started" with it. Today!
YOUR BIGGEST ADVENTURE
Might becomes real when you lace up your shoes and follow me. All my daily marathon distances are online on Komoot and are meant to encourage you to share my project with every one out there. I invite you to step out of your comfort zone and join me, whether it's for 2km, 10km, 20km, or a full marathon.
