Olympus Run Series: Poseidon 2026 — Leg 3

"Some runs are about chasing a PR. Some runs are simply about making it to the finish line."

My period decided it was the perfect day to start, so dysmenorrhea and nausea were already hitting me before the run even began.

I still decided to push through and pretend everything was fine. During the run, though, I honestly had to stop every now and then just to breathe through the cramps. The hardest part was accepting that I wouldn’t be able to run at the pace I wanted or set a new PR for my 10KM.

A little disappointed, but still proud that I finished and kept going anyway.

I’m also really thankful for my friend who introduced me to fun runs. She made me realize that running can actually be enjoyable, and now I can’t stop joining them. Every event gives me something to look forward to.

Running has become a space where I can just breathe and focus on the present for a while. It helps me cope with the stress from work and reminds me that even big goals are reached one small step at a time.

"And maybe that’s what I’m learning through running — not every step has to be fast or perfect. Sometimes, showing up and continuing anyway is already something worth being proud of."
