Story

Hello you and thank you for following the link!

Sooooo…. I’ve taken on the challenge of racing a 250-km (155-mile) self-supported six-stage ultra marathon in Mongolia in June 2025. It’s gonna be long, hot and rough but also a reminder of the privilege of having a healthy body (and mind). Luckily for you, you don’t have to run a single mile of it and you can stay where you are, in the comfort of your own home but still make a difference by donating some dirty (but very welcome) money to EMERGENCY.

EMERGENCY is a NGO that provides free, high-quality care to people affected by conflict and poverty. From Sudan to Uganda, Afghanistan to Iraq and the latest search and rescue activities in the Central Mediterranean, EMERGENCY has treated, over 12.5 million people in 20 different countries since 1994.

So please donate, I’ll take care of the running!
