Our Athletes - Adrienn Padar

What will you do? For the second time in my life I’m preparing for half marathon - never thought I would ever be able to make it, but Hey! here we go again! At first it was all about pushing my limits but this time  it’s more special, since I will give all my effort to a good cause. On Sunday 14th April at the 34th Telekom Vivicitta Spring Half Marathon I’m going to take the extra mile to raise money for children living with serious illnesses. What is your motivation? Bàtor Tàbor Foundation (Camp of Courage) provide life- changing experiences, strength and tools to support and help to recover seriously ill children and their families. When I first heard about them I was fascinated by the ideas and activities they do and my second thought was: How could I help here? Well, sport is one way. I go and train after work then get up for running sessions on the weekends to be able to complete the 21k on the big day. In the meantime I hope to encourage others too to help these children in any way they can. We don’t know what we are able to achieve until we try! I really appreciate your support! “We cannot do great things on this Earth, only small things with great love.”

Why do you run? I started to run less than five years ago – my original motivation to lose some weight but now running is integral part of my life. My big goal for this year is complete my first marathon in September, but I signed up for several other running events as well, partly as part of my training program but also for a good cause – I joined the Morgan Stanley Charity Athletes to raise money for children living with serious illness. Good luck with your plan. What is the next step? Next step: completing the 21km on Sunday 14 April at Vivicitta Spring Half Marathon!
