They committed to staying active despite the Russian invasion. And feel stronger for it.

, 12 to 15 kilometers. And I have one a month that takes probably 20 kilometers. In a week, five runs.

Lviv is a very safe city because it’s controlled by Ukraine troops and the active military activities are far away. I'm trying to get my previous form. I like the city for running. Many parks. When you start on the second or third kilometer, you forget about all this madness and just run, like you’re dreaming. Running helps to pull yourself together and don’t sit on your sofa and start crying. It helps not to do that.My family says, “You’re crazy! It’s a war, and you run?” But after running, I can think about the current situation in some new way. I can overcome my emotion and feel so much better.After I run to a lake, I dive into cold water, and dress and run home.

I have two kids, 6 and 8 years old, and a wife. I have a brother who lives in Germany. They live with him now. We booked a bus and it took more than one day to transfer from Lviv to Berlin. There was really huge confusion on the border, especially on the first day of war. People trying to escape the country. Now the situation is much better.

In the west, near the Poland border, it’s much safer than Kyiv. But even today, a few bombs landed near our airport. Fortunately, there is no death, but still very scary. I planned to start running this morning and saw that there’s aircraft alarm: “You need to go to shelter.” I needed to postpone my running for two hours.The first day in our city, there were two air attacks on our airport, and nothing else for three or four days. Then, on Sunday, I ran for the first time, just 5 kilometers.
