I'm talking Arnold Rogozny<\/a>, Internet People Conferences LOGIN<\/a> the founder. He set himself a crazy challenge run for 100 days in a row <\/strong>and accidentally ran an average of 4.9 kilometers each day.<\/p>\n ...Why did he start running? Where? How? Let's listen.<\/p>\n I am an advertising specialist and LOGIN conference organizer. I'm also an adrenaline fanatic and I try to get it in every possible way: jogging, motorbikes, extreme activities - from waterboarding to bungee jumping.<\/p>\n It is difficult to single out life's adventures as challenges. I usually don't think of it as a challenge. I have gone 960 km along the Camino del Norte to Santiago de Compostela<\/a> in 25 days, jumping off the Vilnius TV tower with a rubber band... But can this be called a challenge?<\/p>\n I am curious and can try many things if the opportunities allow. It's a pity that most of the time these remain attempts, nothing sticks for a longer period of time.<\/p>\n If you ask my friends, I'm definitely pretty boring, but maybe that's not related to challenges and adventures? After all, I usually overcome all challenges alone. Anyway, I choose the middle option - Winnie the Pooh, who said: "When you have nothing to do, you still need something to do."<\/p>\n I wanted to run more often. I read somewhere about a 100-day challenge to run at least a minimum distance every day, but for a hundred days in a row. If you miss a day, you count from the beginning.<\/p>\n In 100 days, you should get so used to jogging that after that it will no longer be a big effort to exercise regularly several times a week. 1<\/a> The rules were very simple - run at least 1 km every day,<\/strong> no matter when, no matter how, no matter where and no matter with whom.<\/p>\n I thought it was the perfect challenge for me, a big willed slacker. Since I have been running irregularly for several years now, there was a need to reinforce this addiction.<\/p>\n In the beginning, I was eager to show myself that I could easily overcome such a challenge, because it didn't seem difficult to run a kilometer or two every day. However, after the first week, fatigue set in, both physically and emotionally.<\/p>\n I just wanted to take a break: not running when it's raining, when it's cold, when I have a headache (I have a migraine), when dinner is too filling and I can't seem to really move, when the weather is good and you want to go out for a beer. Many factors prevented me from reaching my goal every day, but I managed to overcome myself and run not a kilometer every day, but an average of five.<\/p>\n Halfway through the challenge, my joints started hurting and I could barely run 1km for a few days, but after consulting with experts, I started taking supplements and after a few days I was full of energy again. It seemed like a no-brainer to end the challenge afterwards, once you've hit 60-70-80 days, the rest seems ridiculously easy!<\/p>\n I felt so elated that I even thought of writing everything down to my Facebook friends. Now I think it's nothing special. People do really great things for other people and it's just a daily sport for themselves. I don't think it's worth much attention.<\/p>\n I realized that determination is easy, but determination often evaporates along the way. The will must be developed constantly. It wasn't as hard as I imagined, so I'd go for 365 days if a reasonable need arose.<\/p>\n During the challenge, whether you like it or not, a lot has changed: more constant and planned meal times have appeared, and the food itself has changed, alcohol consumption has decreased to an absolute minimum, after about 0.5 l bottle of cider per month, \ud83d\ude42 better sleep and a fresher day.<\/p>\n Now I could continue to run every day, but there is simply no need. So I continue to run, but less frequently, every few days.<\/p>\n I believe that challenges should not be done for the sake of challenges. Challenges should be done for yourself.<\/strong> If it seems that something is missing or you need to improve something in yourself - to develop willpower or something like that - take up the activity that seems appropriate to achieve that goal. It doesn't have to be jogging for a hundred days straight.<\/p>\n I will be traveling to Iran soon. I fear that in the global world there are fewer and fewer places where you can have a culture shock, where you can be thrown out of your comfort zone, but I believe that Iran is still one of those places. It's not a challenge, but it seems like an odd choice to many.<\/p>\n Well, there you go... Inspiring! Arnold inspired me to try the jogging challenge<\/a>. I didn't run for long, just a few weeks, but I tried. \ud83d\ude43<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/debesyla.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/arnoldas-rogoznyj-kaip-begau-simta-dienu.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
