Running for a lifetime
In my twenties, a few years after my recovery, I joined the Budapest University Athletic Club – running has since become an integral part of how I maintain my health. On November 19th, at the hvg.hu Human Talks conference at the Bálna, we discuss how to keep running for a lifetime.

In my twenties, a few years after my recovery, I joined the Budapest University Athletic Club. Back then I was chasing race times – since then, running has become an integral part of how I maintain my health, alongside plenty of complementary training: swimming, strength work and mobility exercises.
On November 19th, at the hvg.hu Human Talks conference at the Bálna, under the title "Running for a Lifetime" we bring four perspectives to one table: running coach István Őry on training and sustainable running habits, movement specialist Bence Pájer on movement quality, Garmin specialist and ultrarunner Gábor Rebbenszki on technology and ultra distances, and me, as a longevity researcher, on what running gives – and takes away, without complementary training – from the years we spend in good health.
The conversation is moderated by sports psychologist Dora Fejes, author of the book Futóterápia. I also write about this on tberci.com/maratonfutas, where I share my training log and longevity parameters.
