					<description><![CDATA[In October last year, when my Achilles tendon had finally made its opinion known, I found myself in a park in Cologne. I wasn’t running. I was jogging, slowly, with my eyes covered and one hand lightly resting on the arm of someone guiding me. We were part of a workshop for sighted running guides—learning how to help blind and visually impaired runners move safely, confidently, freely. It was humbling. I was there to learn how to guide. But at that moment, I needed guidance myself. What I assumed would be a short break turned into a long pause. The tendon trouble became bursitis, and then a months-long journey of adaptation. Orthotic insoles helped, to some degree. The pain is manageable now, but not entirely gone. Some runs feel light. Others feel like work. I run maybe once a week. Slowly. With no expectation other than showing up. And yet, I’ve signed up for two half marathons—Cologne in autumn, Hamburg next spring. Not to race. Not to chase times. But because friends of mine are &#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[As I step out into the chilly air, I can feel the weight of the past year bearing down on my shoulders. My Achilles tendon still aches, a constant reminder of the injury that has slowed me down for so long. And yet, despite the pain and the setbacks, I lace up my shoes and begin to run. It’s the first day of a new year, and I am determined to make it a successful one. The road stretches out before me, slick with dew, and I am reminded of a passage from Haruki Murakami’s «What I Talk About When I Talk About Running»: «Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.» It may be an overused quote, but it’s a sentiment that has always resonated with me, and I repeat it to myself like a mantra as I settle into my stride. Yes, the pain is there, but I can choose whether or not to let it defeat me. «Rather than focusing on a specific finish time or placing in a race, I can set goals &#8230;]]></description>
