70 kilometers for Natalia. A run through cities united in their efforts to help

Birthdays That Matter

Hi, my name is Wiktor, and I’ll be turning 19 on May 9. I’ve decided to celebrate this day differently than usual. Instead of celebrating just for myself, I want to do something that will make a difference to someone else.

In 2025, I lost a friend who lost his battle with illness. He was only 15 years old. That experience changed me in many ways. I promised myself then that, if I could, I would do everything in my power to help other young people facing similar challenges.

Why Natalia, of all people?

Natalia’s story really moved me. That’s why I’m taking on this challenge for her. I want to run over 70 kilometers through several cities, inviting people to join me, even if just for a short stretch. Anyone can join in, run with me, and become part of this initiative.

70 Kilometers of Hope – Run with Me – Even Just for a Moment

I train for obstacle courses every day. I know what it means to push yourself, to feel exhausted, and to have moments of doubt. I see this race as a symbol. Just as I’ll be covering mile after mile, Natalia faces her own obstacles every day—ones that are much harder than those on the course.

I want to give her something personal. A headband I earned after finishing an obstacle course. To me, it’s a symbol of struggle and perseverance. For her, it’s meant to be a reminder that you can overcome any difficulty and never give up.

Together we can do more

Along the route, we’ll be joined by more people—athletes and local residents—who will help spread the word about the event. I’ll prepare a map and an estimated schedule so that everyone can join in their own city. I’ll be posting updates on social media to reach as many people as possible and encourage others to support the cause.

This isn't just a run. It's an effort to bring people together around a common goal: helping Natalia. Every donation and every share brings us one step closer to providing her with real support.
