Low tide on Hamahiga. Uruma city lights across the water. Storm coming in from the east.

I took this late at night, walking back from the beach. Nobody around. Just sand, dark water, and the sound of the wind picking up.

These are the hours between training days.

A river running through the centre of Uruma City. Stones, shallow water, green islands of grass — completely unexpected.

I run past here on training days. Okinawa keeps catching you off guard like this. You think you know a route and then something opens up that you weren't expecting.

Still here. Still running.

August in the Czech mountains — keeping the legs moving between seasons. The camp doesn't coach itself. If I'm asking participants to show up ready, I need to be ready too.

November isn't far.

The southernmost point of Okinawa's main island. Peace Memorial Park in Itoman.

I came here on a rest day during the camp season. The park overlooks the East China Sea — the site of the final battle of the Pacific War in 1945. The names of everyone who died here, Okinawan, Japanese, American, are carved into the Cornerstone of Peace.

Some places make you stop and stand still for a while. This is one of them.

A stone-walled path lit by red lanterns. Ryukyu architecture, December night, complete silence.

I found this walking around Murasaki Mura after dark. It looked like something out of another century.

Okinawa in winter is not what most people expect. It's mild, quiet, and full of moments like this — especially if you're willing to be out in the evening after everyone else has gone home.

August in the Jeseníky. This is where I train between seasons.

The elevation, the forest, the quiet — it's a different kind of running to Okinawa's coastal roads, but the principle is the same. Put in the work now, before the hard day comes.

Camp starts in November.

The roads look different in December.

Murasaki Mura — a reconstructed Ryukyu village on the main island — runs a lantern festival through the winter months. I walked through it one evening during the camp season. Colored lanterns lining the stone walls, nobody around, completely quiet.

This is the other side of Okinawa. Not the running. Just the island being itself.

Found this on Oodomari Beach, Ikei Island. Picked it up, stood it in the sand, took the photo.

A bottle completely encrusted with barnacles — it had been in the sea for a long time before washing up here. Still standing. Still intact.

I don't know where it came from or how long it was out there. But something about it felt right for the last post of the season.

Whatever you've been putting off — the first ultra, the big race, the thing that scares you — the time is now. Inquiries close July 31.

The Beach of Sosu. Exactly on the 100 km route.

Storm clearing. Sun breaking through. Rainbow over the sea stacks. I stopped, took the photo, stood there for a moment.

This is one of the places we pass on Day 6. I'll be here with the camp participants — running through it, not just looking at it from a car window. That's the difference.

A few spots left for October. Link in bio. Link in bio.

This is not a beach. Not a forest. Not a running route.

Gyokusendo — one of the largest cave systems in Japan. Blue underground pools, stalactites that took thousands of years to form, complete silence except for dripping water.

I went here with my family on a rest day. Okinawa keeps surprising you like this. You come for the running and end up somewhere completely unexpected.

That's the island. There's more to it than anyone tells you.

Seven nights here in October. Running, coaching, and whatever else the island decides to show you. Details in bio.
