Σύντομο Βιογραφικό:
“Endurance running is not about one race or one result - it is about discipline, patience and showing up every single day. My goal is continuous improvement, both as an athlete and as a person.” I have always been passionate about sports. As a child, I trained as a swimmer. Today, I run every day (around 6,000 km per year). I love the mountains and trail running, and I also enjoy swimming and cycling occasionally. I am a husband, a father of two, and a proud dog owner. Ever since I started running in 2010, my ultimate dream has been to take part in SPARTATHLON. Along the way, I have completed all 18 marathons I have entered, as well as 12-hour and 24-hour ultra races. I have broken the 3-hour marathon barrier several times, with a personal best of 2h 51m. In 2024, during my first-ever 12-hour race, I covered 121.9 km. In 2025, in my debut 24-hour race, I reached 230 km. That same year, I placed 3rd 🥉 in the Slovenian National Championship (24h), and 2nd 🥈 in my second 12-hour race attempt. My greatest dream - to reach SPARTATHLON and symbolically “kiss the feet of Leonidas” - became reality ☺️ in 2025, when I finished it on my first attempt in 28h 40m 11s. This was the 3rd 🥉 fastest Slovenian debut in SPARTATHLON history (since 1983). In March 2026, I competed in a 24-hour race in Koper, Slovenia, where I won both the 12-hour and 24-hour men’s categories and became Slovenian National Champion in both. I covered 126.96 km in 12 hours and 238.68 km in 24 hours, within the same race 🥇🥇🥇. The next challenge is still unwritten - but the journey continues. 🤓
