Low-key mad at myself. Why didnβt I start training earlier? Why was I so lazy last year (2025)? What did I do all year besides work and sleep? LoL π€£
This week feels like a mix of sadness and excitement. Everyone I know is running the G.O.A.T Trail Race β the biggest trail race in the UAE, the one everyoneβs been waiting for.
Every time I see my teammates cross the lineβ
especially in those long, major racesβIβm amazed.
So much grit. So much heart.
It makes me proud to be part of this team.
Proud that I chose this path.
Their achievements fuel me.
They remind me why I train, why I stay disciplined, why I keep showing up.
For now, Iβm focusing on my core.
Building strength where it matters most.
Laying the foundation.
Elevation fitness matters more than pace.
Fuel before you feel week.
Phones dies, mental strength finishes races.
Mountain taught me.
I'll be back stronger.
35km trail makes me humbled.
I realized I need more training.
Train elevation, not excuses.
If you can't survive the climb and downhills
This 35km will humbled you.
If you only train flat
Don't complain on climb.
You'll face here lose rocks
And brutal downhills.
