I più grandi successi
- Gerês Extreme Marathon 90km (Portugal): I achieved victory in a 90km road marathon just 10 months into my trail running journey. Completing the challenging race, featuring a 2700m+ elevation, in 8 hours and 1 minute, stands as my proudest accomplishment. December 2001.

- TPG 100mi (Portugal): While not my best result, the Trans Peneda-Gerês trail race marked my first 100-mile race with a challenging 9100m+ elevation. Despite enduring a prolonged injury and almost losing hope, I finished 4th in the general ranking. This race reignited my racing spirit after tough months. May 2022
- World Mountain and Trail Running Championship 2023 (Austria): Representing my country at the trail world championships in Innsbruck, Austria, was a pinnacle moment. The 86km race was my toughest yet. I faced extreme challenges but finished proudly, securing a mid-pack result at 94th. Bringing the Hungarian flag across the finish line was an achievement I cherish. June 2023.

- MIUT 115km (Madeira Island, Portugal): The Madeira Island Ultra Trail was my focus in 2023, demanding over 4 months of targeted preparation. This 115km ultra trail, featuring challenging staircases, ranks among the toughest. I secured the 34th position out of 652 athletes, and it was such a great experience that I've committed to repeating it in 2024! April 2023
- GTSA 100km (Portugal): Twice in the Grand Trail Serra D'Arga, in 2021 and 2023, I stood on the podium, clinching 2nd place in both instances. With determination, my goal for the next year is clear - it has to be the top of the podium! October 2021 / 2023

- Ironman: Long harbored in my mind, the desire for an Ironman experience lingered. Last summer, on a national holiday in July, I seized the opportunity. Swimming 3.9km, cycling 180km, and running a marathon (42.2km), I took on the challenge self-supported near my home. It was both a blast and a tough nut to crack, completed in 11 hours and 30 minutes. In 2024, I eagerly anticipate a repeat, this time in a proper Ironman race.

I understand it may not be much. What I truly enjoy is crafting extensive blog posts. Regrettably, it demands considerable time, a luxury I lack. Therefore, I opt for infrequent but high-quality posts. When embarking on my trail running journey, I envisioned documenting it all, yet it's proven more challenging than anticipated. Despite the hurdles, I persevere, sharing my experiences to demonstrate that rising to the top from an underdog position is indeed possible.
What I seek isn't a life-altering opportunity, but partnerships that believe ordinary 9-to-5 individuals can reach professional sporting levels. I'm dedicated to sacrificing what I can to achieve this goal—to turn pro. I'm committed to doing everything within my means for those who share my vision and support me.
Thank you!
