My Journey

---

I was born and raised in Bosnia.  My life took a dramatic turn when I was injured by the grenade during the Bosnian war. That same grenade also injured my sister and tragically took my mother's life. 

I was only 10 years old.

That experience shaped my perspective on resilience, perseverance, and the power of the human spirit. 

Over the years, I've learned that the true strength isn't just physical - it's mental. Ultra running became my way of pushing limits, proving that we are stronger than we think, and embracing challenges head-on.

I created Grit Beyond Limits to share my journey and help others build the mindset needed to conquer not just races, but life's toughest moments. Whether you're training for your first ultra, struggling with mental barriers, or just looking for motivation, you are in the right place. 

Rođena sam i odrasla u Bosni i Hercegovini. Moj život je doživio dramatičan preokret kada sam bila ranjena od granate tokom bosanskog rata. Ta ista granata je također ranila moju sestru i tragično oduzela život mojoj majci. 

Imala sam samo 10 godina.

To iskustvo oblikovalo je moje shvatanje otpornosti, ustrajnosti i snage ljudskog duha. Tokom godina, naučila sam da prava snaga nije samo fizička – ona je mentalna. Ultra trčanje je postalo moj način pomjeranja granica, dokazivanja da smo jači nego što mislimo i suočavanja s izazovima direktno.

Osmislila sam "Grit Beyond Limits" kako bih podijelila svoje putovanje i pomogla drugima da izgrade način razmišljanja potreban za osvajanje ne samo trka, već i najtežih životnih trenutaka. Bilo da trenirate za svoju prvu ultra trku, borite se s mentalnim preprekama ili jednostavno tražite motivaciju, na pravom ste mjestu.
