I’m always looking for ways to challenge myself and learn new things. Lately, I’ve been fascinated by the potential of AI to enhance education and creativity. I’ve also been struggling to stay consistent with my fitness goals and find motivation to run regularly.

So I decided to combine these two interests and create a fun and engaging project for myself and others. I’m going to train for a marathon with the help of AI and manga!

What does that mean exactly? Well, I’m going to transform myself into Zephyr, a fictional character I created based on the world of the manga Berserk. Zephyr is a brave warrior who embarks on an epic quest to run a marathon in a fantasy world full of dangers and adventures.

Every day, I’ll share updates on my progress, both as Zephyr and as myself, through a captivating narrative and visual content. You can follow along on this website and on Instagram using the hashtag #ZephyrAImarathon.

To make this project possible, I’m using some amazing tools and technologies. First, I’m using OpenAI’s ChatGPT to generate the story based on my daily inputs. ChatGPT is a powerful language model that can create coherent and engaging texts on any topic.
