What my 2025 running record taught me about consistency, longer ordinary runs, and reaching a 1:40 half marathon without turning every session into a race.

A 16.33 km dawn run from Nanshan to Shenzhen Bay — empty streets, still water, and a steady sub-5 pace.

A review of my 2025 fitness record — walking, running, and half marathons, measured one step at a time.

Golden Week running in Shanghai: a 15 km riverside cruise from Wanguo Stadium and a grinding session of stadium laps.

An 11.11 km treadmill session with the incline nudged up and Shanghai’s Middle Ring Road streaming past the window.

A 21.34 km sunrise half-marathon loop through central Shanghai — Suzhou Creek, the Bund, and Xuhui Riverside, all before breakfast.

A 10.2 km run through pine forest and dunes along the Baltic coast in Palanga, Lithuania — with a wolf warning sign and a 1422 border monument.

A 10.55 km sunrise double loop around Budapest’s Margaret Island — a car-free track, Danube views, and built-in pacing.
