HCA Marathon 2022

By on Tuesday, September 27, 2022

Sunday September 25th 2022 I ran the HCA Marathon in Odense, Denmark. Find below my full race coverage from a this very nice marathon in the city of birth of the great Poet Hans Christian Andersen.

HCA Marathon Odense 2022 - Tor Rønnow
  • Mr. Ulrik Pihl of Denmark completed his marathon no. 1000 (!) – congrats!
  • Mr. Michael Stewart Fogh, a long-time young running friend WON the race, in the time 2.30; Michael is not a elite runner so to outright win an event of this magnitude is just magical

    • It is also worth to mention the high-class organization behind the event, I believe everything was just right and the staff and many helpers were cheerful and friendly throughout the day. Add to this a nice and often scenic route and plenty of spectators, well, at least during Round 1. In toto, yet another perfect race at HCA Marathon in Odense.

    Wizz Air Cluj-Napoca Marathon 2022

    By on Saturday, September 24, 2022

    Below my race report from the Wizz Air Cluj-Napoca Marathon 2022, Romania, including various tourist impressions from this so charming little city.

    Cluj-Napoca Old City Centre
    Cluj-Napoca features a friendly green city with a very cosy old city centre with lots of bars and restaurants. After vistiting Mexico City the weekend before (!), it was such a delight just to walk around feeling completely safe and not watching policemen every 10 meters. As seen in the pictures, Cluj-Napoca becomes very scenic especially at night time and put on top some inexpensive and very good restaurants and you have the perfect choice for a great weekend escape.

    The running event featured a full and a half marathon Sunday morning as well as a relay and a 10K race.
    The marathon was comprised by two times the same course and in that many turns and “run back the same way”-loops, this was actually very nice indeed, it made you feel surrounded by runners all the time a gave some focus points on other runners to “follow” or undertake. Furthermore, you will sense a sort of fuga-like revisting of places and buildings, each variation to present some new, nice details. For a small city like Cluj-Napoca, this sort of marathon route is just brilliant. Just so very brilliant!

    Thus, see in the race report below just why you should strongly consider the Wizz Air Cluj-Napoca Marathon. I loved it for sure!
