Put your sneakers on, sport and charity challenge!
I would like to challenge myself and to challenge you to put on our sneakers and join our efforts to show solidarity.
As a father of three daughters, I decided to run 100 kilometers in May – in compliance with the COVID-19 sanitary restrictions – and to donate 1 CHF per kilometer to each of the Foundations mentioned below. My alarm clock is set for 05:30 AM 😉
I invite you to join me for this sporting and charitable challenge!
And you, what challenge do you want to launch for May 2020?
