Step by Step: My Story
I first discovered race walking in 2014, when my former coach, Tibor Őze, invited me to try the sport as part of his team. It quickly became clear that I had a talent for it, and my first successes came soon after. Over the years, I had the opportunity to represent my country in several international competitions, first as a junior national team athlete and later as a senior competitor. My best individual result so far is an 8th place at the European U23 Championships, where I managed to perform well despite significant challenges.
The 2023 season was a defining year for me. I broke two national records, which helped secure my qualification for the 2024 European Athletics Championships in Rome. Although I was not able to perform at my full potential at that event, later that same year I became Hungarian Senior National Champion and was selected as a reserve member of the Hungarian Olympic team for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The 2025 season did not unfold as I had planned, but despite the difficulties, it was a great achievement for our team to win the bronze medal at the European Race Walking Team Championships. That year I also competed at the FISU World University Games (Universiade), where I finished 27th, and I won the Hungarian Half Marathon Race Walking National Championship in Germany.
The 2026 season started very strongly. After six months of intense work, I achieved the qualification standard for the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham at my first major competition of the year, securing my place at the event. This is an important step toward competing at the 2027 World Athletics Championships and qualifying for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
