TURKISH AIRLINES ACTIVEPULSE HALF MARATHON | My Experience + Tips for Beginner Runners 🏃‍♂️🎥

I recently took part in the TURKISH AIRLINES ACTIVEPULSE HALF MARATHON, and it was an incredible journey! The weather was fairly good, and I decided to make a vlog while running to capture the raw experience of the race. 🌤️✨

In this video, I will:
✅ Share my real-time experience during the run
✅ Talk about the challenges and highlights of the race
✅ Give practical tips for beginner runners who are planning their first 5K, 10K, or even half marathon
✅ Reflect on how I felt overall—physically, mentally, and emotionally—after crossing the finish line

Whether you are new to running or just curious about what a half marathon feels like, this vlog will give you a first-hand perspective. Hopefully, my experience can inspire you to lace up your shoes and give it a try!
