I'm fundraising for all my friends with MS
WHY THE MS AWARENESS RUN?Between 2018-2023 I was working at EMSP. During this period I made plenty of friends, many of them living with Multiple Sclerosis.
I decided to join the MS Awareness Run to help my friends at EMSP raise awareness of MS and to give something back to the MS community.
GIVING BACK TO NONPROFITS
At the same time, I'm also the Director of Boostern, a Brussels-based digital agency working with nonprofits. Working with NGOs and charities is a super rewarding experience, but I also want to make sure that I give back to the nonprofit community every year.
MY HISTORY WITH PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES
Running is actually not really my thing. I prefer spending time in a gym lifting weights. I only participated in a relay half-marathon once without any preparation and it almost cost me an injury.
This time I decided to do it right. I hit pause on the gym and have running sessions early in the mornings (usually I wake up at 4AM) to train for the Brussels Airport 7K.
My physical resistance is basically non-existent because I have been skipping steady state and HIIT cardio for years now.
However, by consistently training and improving my endurance, I want to make sure that I'm not only running 7km with ease, but that I also arrive to the Brussels Airport 7K with a competitive time.
