Nyíregyháza Running Festival and Book Launch | Aug. 2024

As summer draws to a close and we prepare for the autumn running events, my good friend Dr. Péter Turai—who served as the medical technical reviewer for my book—and I look forward to welcoming everyone interested in a joint run and a *Super sapiens* book launch this weekend (Aug 24-25).

During a stage conversation spiced with personal stories, experiences, and scientific facts—viewed through the lenses of medicine and biomedical engineering—we will discuss how an active lifestyle contributes to achieving a longer, healthier, and fuller life.

How do we start and how do we maintain our motivation when it comes to sports?

Why should we run slower (too) if we want to run faster?

What should we do if the flow, the "runner's high," doesn't come during a run?

How does running affect not only our physical but also our mental endurance?

(Similarly to the spring sports festival in Szeged, where we presented the books *Run, Believe, Live* and *Super sapiens* led by Tamás Gajdos, you can expect an informal conversation here as well, as part of the motivational evening of the IV Wittur-Nyíregyháza Running Festival.

If you missed the spring event, it can be re-watched on YouTube, on the @flow channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAfa7g1d_5U&t=1488s )

We will put Saturday evening's "theory" into practice the next day (Aug 25); on Sunday morning, Peti and I will stand at the start of the 5 km race at the Nyíregyháza Running Festival along with hundreds of our enthusiastic fellow runners, including Tamás Gajdos, and together we will take steps toward a healthier life (and experiencing the flow).

We would like to thank the main organizers, Dr. Richárd Bana and Ádám Roma, for the invitation.

We look forward to seeing everyone on this path, where every step brings us closer to a healthier life!
