Life is a marathon, not a sprintathon

Welcome to

Vikesathon

I will be writing about the things I’ve learned, some funny experiences that have happened to me and sharing ways you can enjoy the sport of running and triathlon on a budget.

The running community is kind and generous, and I believe the best way to improve yourself is to help others.
