#72 1:11 in His First Half Marathon | João’s Copenhagen Follow Up
João returns to The People Run after making his half marathon debut at the Copenhagen Half Marathon, running 1:11:58.
We talk about why the race became the hardest effort of his life, fighting through the final kilometers, losing his bib mid-race, finishing second in his age group, and what he learned about himself when things started to hurt.
João also shares what life has been like since moving to the UK to study sports science at St. Mary’s, why he chose recovery over another race, and what comes next as he turns his focus back toward the shorter distances.
