When I was 38, I took upon a challenge to start my 40s on a high. The challenge was simple. I would run 40 half marathons before turning 40.

Before this, I was running occasionally.

For about 18 months, I ran 2-3 half marathons every month and completed my challenge. By the time I reached 40, I was in the best shape of my life. Also, I figured out that my mind and body can now take any challenge and complete it.

I turned 41 in June and already ran more than 70 half marathons and one full marathon (Copenhagen full marathon).
