Story

ENGLISH TEXT BELOW

Ti chiedo una piccola donazione di soli 5£ o 10£. Il concetto è semplice: tante piccole donazioni, tutte assieme per raggiungere il mio obiettivo di 4500£


Faccio questa raccolta perché mio padre Ariedo è malato di Parkinson. Ho iniziato a correre nel settembre 2008 quando gli è stata diagnosticata la malattia per combattere il mio stress e il mio senso di impotenza. Correre per raccogliere fondi per questa malattia è una cosa emozionante e piena di significato per me, è il mio modo per dare un senso a quello che faccio.


Se raggiungerò grazie a voi il mio obiettivo per festeggiare correrò vestita da Wonder Woman la Strongman Run del 29 Settembre (più che una corsa, un percorso di guerra nel fango, con ostacoli e molto di più). E il 7 ottobre correrò con l'associazione Parkinson Uk la mezza maratona di Londra.


Un mondo di grazie, da parte mia e di mio padre Ariedo.


I am asking for a small donation of just £10. It 'a small donation, but very important. 
The concept is simple: lots of small donations which all together will help me to achieve my goal of  £4500.

I am fundraising for Parkinson because my father Ariedo suffers from Parkinson. I started running in September 2008 when he was diagnosed with the disease to combat my stress and my sense of helplessness. Therefore running a half marathon to raise funds for this disease is something exciting and full of meaning for me, it is my way to make sense of what I do.

If I reach my goal I will celebrate by running the Strongman Run (a gruelling 30km race tackling various obstacles in the mud) on the 29th of September dressed as Wonder Woman. And I will also run with the association for the London Half Marathon.

Thank you ever so much from me and my father Ariedo.
