Welcome to johncottam.com
Running is fantastic to exercise the body and the mind. From a small jog to an ultra, they are all excellent.
Over 10 years I have been running marathons to collect and to see how they differ. My overall favourites so far has been Montafon Arlberg trail Marathon in St. Anton, Austria and Nuuksio Classic trail Marathon in Espoo, Finland.
So far I have run 209 Marathons in 24 different countries. The most difficult has been Tiirismaa Trail in 2025 (a beautiful forest trail marathon in Finland with Ski slopes).
I have also run 2 Marathons on the same day in 2016 (probably at my peak of running) in Tampere, Wiihan Kilometrit.ย
