Race - Jurerê Marathon 2025
- 1 de novembro de 2025
The Jurerê Marathon has a unique vibe. Beach, sun, that postcard visual, and an energy that seems to push us forward. I was originally registered for the 21 km, but a few weeks before the race, I already felt that I hadn’t managed to train as I should have. The half marathon would require significant wear and tear, and I felt it wasn’t worth it. I chose to switch to the 10 km, a choice that turned out to be very wise.
The start, always with a light atmosphere, and the flat course of Jurerê Internacional make this race special. Even so, the result was a little below what I expected, but it counts. I started with a relatively constant pace, without pushing too hard, just trying to maintain control and enjoy the day. I finished with an average pace of 5:29 min/km, completing the course with a sense of accomplishment.
The course passed through the main sections of Jurerê, always flat, fast, and with plenty of sun.

Running is like that, not every day goes as planned, not every race can we execute as we trained. My biggest lesson is always to listen to my own body and not push myself too hard. Running is an experience that leads us to many lessons and helps us to know ourselves, but it needs to be light; if there is too much pressure, it loses its charm. We keep going!
