Story

Thanks for coming to my page! :)

My story starts with a team of Mondelez colleagues who inspired me to run a marathon for the first time in my life... 

I thought it could never happen to me but it did. I was curious about and wanted to know myself what makes people so enthusiastic about running.

And I was naïve enough not to conclude at the very beginning that it is impossible to get from 2 to 42km in less than 12 months :) 

Signing up for the marathon, our team (4 ladies and 8 gents with 9 nationalities between us) committed to run 10,000 miles and raise money for Oxfam charity.

Oxfam teams help people in humanitarian crises caused by natural disasters like earthquakes or human activities like military conflicts. They also provide for education and training to allow the poor and deprived to start earning a decent living. 

I like what they do and that’s why I want to dedicate my transformation into a runner to Oxfam cause of fighting poverty. I run and I talk about it to ask for your support.

Please leave a donation on this page and help us make it a life-changing campaign!
