Hello,
as some of you already know I have been running for a long time, but just in 2015 I decided to run my first Half Marathon. Since then I have done 4, and the plan is that this year I do another 4.
On April 22 I will be running my 5th Half Marathon in Belgrade. Just recently, I read about this young man who is now 22 and who is running as well. However, he is not fortunate to buy proper equipment, and he even runs without proper running shoes. Everyone who runs knows how important shoes are, and if you don't have proper shoes you end up with blisters. So, I decided to try to collect some money and find this guy and to present him with some proper equipment so he can run more comfortably.
I would like to buy some equipment for him (shoes, shorts, shirt, compression socks, water bottle - he ran his Sombor half marathon without any water, etc.
Also, I plan to contact the newspaper in which I read about him, to help me finding his address. Anyways, Sombor is a small city, and I am sure I can find him.
The link to the article: Link to the article His name is Lazar Rišar (born 1994).
Also, depending on the ammount I collect I will donate some for kids who are running but can not buy proper equipment. I know some running clubs who I can ask which kid needs support.
I would like to thank everyone who donates.
Best regards,
Vuk
