One Powerful Lesson
30 KM | 6 HRS | 2110 M D+
“Running this trail reminded me a lot of the journey with Bitcoin. Both are about resilience, pushing through tough conditions, and believing in something bigger. Just like Bitcoin’s decentralized nature, running a mountain trail teaches you that the power comes from within—no single force controls the path, but your determination defines the outcome.
Every climb felt like a step towards a more independent mindset, just like each block mined brings us closer to decentralization. The ups and downs of the trail were a reminder that the hardest paths often lead to the greatest rewards—whether it’s crossing the finish line or achieving financial freedom.
Huge thanks to the amazing support from @nhlarmaan of BitcoinHub for backing me throughout this journey, both on and off the trail. Your support made this run possible. Here’s to more miles, more blocks, and more victories! 🏔👟💪”

🚀 On Sunday, a team of Bitcoin Runners took on the challenge of a trail marathon relay race and won!
The prestigious event takes runners along an ancient route connecting Salisbury with Winchester in the UK. More than 1,000 runners participated, and the competition was fierce, with nail-biting drama at the second transition as the top two relay teams sprinted neck and neck through crowds of cheering supporters.
The team, consisting of Alex (captain), Dylan, James, and Rich, went on to complete the race in 2:45:27, setting a new course record!
It’s our 4th year participating, which makes the win even sweeter.
Bitcoin is gaining positive recognition despite FUD. This is more than just a future global reserve asset — it’s a movement of people, and we’re winning! 🏆
