Interview with Aleksej Kozlov

August 27, 2024

How did you first hear about S95?

In Telegram t.me/belgradewinerun

What motivated you to start participating in S95 events?

Need for communication (mostly in Russian) and socialization

How long have you been running or jogging?

>10 years

Do you have any specific goals for your running, such as improving your time or distance?

Keeping fit. Improving speed and endurance.

Vadim would like to add: AFAIR, Aleksej tried many times to break 18:00 in our S95, and he managed to do it in July - one more reason to join us!

What do you enjoy most about participating in S95?

Banana cake :) and other after-run deserts

Have you participated in any other running events or races?

Yes, many times.

Vadim would like to add: In my opinion, Aleksej is very shy. In the summer season he participates in some trail in Serbia, BiH or Montenegro almost every weekend. So, now he's a rare guest in our #S95 runs but of course we're glad to see him again!

Finish line

Tea maker

Do you have any running tips or advice for beginners?

My best 5 km time was on S95 event just one week after a tough 90km 5000+ race

Are you involved in any other community or fitness activities?

Sport related? Not really
