Now I understand why it wasn’t just for me
50 km on trails. Within my comfort zone. Yes, that’s how it works for me. Those who know me know: I don’t rush. And I don’t want to. As strange as it may sound, I run within my comfort zone. That’s how I started this one too — whatever happens, happens. Calmly. Steadily. As usual, I broke it down into smaller sections in my head. It wasn’t 50 km, just a lot of small parts. Whenever a climb or a stretch felt too long, I looked down at my feet. One step. Another one. And another. I didn’t get enough sleep the night before, and we had to start early (spoiler: you can’t ...
Not just for myself this time
Every year, I have a “big plan.” Not necessarily something loud or spectacular, but something that’s there in the background — something that nudges me to step a little outside my comfort zone. This year, that bigger goal is set for August. This 50 km is more like a checkpoint — an honest look at where I am right now, both physically and mentally. What really draws me to challenges like this isn’t the finish time. It’s the atmosphere. It’s very different from a typical race. There’s no constant pressure to prove anything. Everyone moves at their own pace, for their own reasons, and ...

Többször túráztam már 20 kilométert, idén is van már 45,5 km a lábaimban. De ez a Gerecse valahogy más lesz. A terep sem ígérkezik a legkönnyebbnek, de felelősség is kellemes súlyát is vinni fogom magammal. Hiszen nem csak magáért megyek, hanem azokért a gyerekekért, akikért ez a gyűjtés zajlik. Induljunk már! 🙂
An enforced rest before the marathon
Unexpected situations always happen – especially when you put yourself into something new, where you don’t yet know how you’ll react. My right ankle has now decided: “Fruzsi, thanks, that’s enough – I’m checking out for a bit.” Unfortunately, it developed an inflammation that made running painful just 3 weeks before the marathon. I’ve been resting it for over a week now, while strengthening it in other ways, hoping that by race day I’ll be fully recovered. This week I’ve managed a few short test runs, which give me hope: maybe in a week I won’t just be able to start, but also ...
Yeses and noes⚖️
⚖️ While preparing for the marathon, I’m facing a lot of sacrifices, careful planning, and often long, uncomfortable training runs. Of course, all of this was my own decision – but this period still comes with compromises. Many times I have to say no to things I would enjoy doing, and yes to things I would rather skip. ❤️🩹 For children who need hospital treatment, however, their everyday lives are not determined by their own choices. Their days are shaped by the medical team and strict protocols. They don’t get to decide whether to say yes or no to a medical test. The team at Bátor ...
Miracle-Working Locations at Bátor Tábor (Part 2)
🐕🌳 As I prepare for the big challenge, my two greatest supporters during my runs are my dog, Hekla, and nature. 🐎🌱 At the camp, children and volunteers are also surrounded by a wonderful natural environment, where they can experience firsthand what it feels like to connect with another living being. During the equestrian program, children have the opportunity to build strong focus and a meaningful bond with an animal in a safe setting. In the process, they not only gain confidence in riding but also learn more about themselves. Meanwhile, through the fun games of the horse-assistant ...
Miracle-Working Locations at Bátor Tábor (Part 1)
🌞 At Bátor Tábor, there are so many special locations that make the camp truly unique. At every program site, volunteers stand ready to help campers gain lifelong experiences through adventures and games. Every single program will be with me during my run — because each one is worth running the marathon for. 🪖 There’s the Courage Program, for example, where on a high ropes course, children discover just how much they are capable of — even at such heights. 🏹 Hidden among the dense trees is the archery range. Here, campers can truly experience that they can reach their goals — they ...

In 42 days, I will run the first marathon of my life, naturally wearing a purple T-shirt in the colors of Bátor Tábor. 💜 That day I will run 42 kilometers, which will be no small challenge for me. Although I’ve been regularly lacing up my running shoes and enthusiastically putting in the miles for the past 10 years, I have never covered such a long distance before. But this achievement cannot compare to the strength and perseverance of the children and their families whom I have met at Bátor Tábor. 💪 I surely have at least 42 reasons to support the work of Bátor Tábor. At the top ...
Gyűlnek a leúszott Km-ek, gyűlik a pénzecske a gyerekeknek!
2026.02.08 - Vasárnap Ahogy az edzéseim során gyűlnek a leúszott KM-ek, úgy gyűlik a pénzecske is a gyerekek számára. Nagy öröm ez nekem, valamint óriási extra motiváció! Jelenleg heti egyszer-kétszer úszom a kiegészítő kardio edzések mellé. Egy alkalommal egyhuzamban kb 1,5 - 2km-t szoktam leúszni. Rengeteg idő van még hátra! Gyűljenek a kilométerek, gyűljön a pénz!😍

(Magyar) A Bátor Tábor önkéntes cimbije, de miért? Természetjáró, de miért? Egyikünk sem lehet csak jó, vagy csak kedves. Senki sem tökéletes, és (tudtommal) senki sem szent. Én vagyok az is, aki hibázik, én vagyok az, aki megnevettet néha, én vagyok az is, aki türelmetlen, és az is én vagyok, aki gyógyítani próbál. Egy kiadós túra, kapcsolódni a természettel ugyanazt az érzést adja számomra, mint amikor belépek a Bátor Táborba, és a társaimmal közösen nekigyürkőzök egy turnusnak, amiről tudom, hogy kimerítő lesz, de mindenképpen felemelő. Ilyenkor közelíthetek kicsit önmagam jobb ...

(Magyar) Megúsztam 😀 Összességében jól sikerült nap volt! Arra számítottam, hogy hideg lesz a víz, de ez nem volt probléma, nem éreztem hidegnek egyáltalán. Az eleje volt nehezebb, inkább a túlgondolkodást kikapcsolni... De a visszafordító előtt már jó volt. Kb 2 órás időt terveztem, így nagyon meglepett, mikor valaki a végefelé mondta, mennyi az idő, majd a chip leolvasása után mondták is,hogy 1: 31. 😊 Utána még az Élménykülönítményes sátornál bandáztam, vátam az öcsémet. ( ő az egész távot úszta meg.)
