This project is amazing and I am so grateful to be able to participate in it.<br><\/li><li><strong>How\/what did you feel when you completed a challenge?&nbsp;<\/strong><br><br>It is an incredible feeling. No doubt about it! When I see the kms that I need to complete in a new challenge, I always think: \u201cthis time I won\u2019t be able to do it, it\u2019s too much\u201d. But when I reach my goal, I&#8217;m really happy!<br><\/li><li><strong>Do you think Run4aChild had\/has a positive impact in your life?<\/strong><br><br>Without a doubt. Run4aChild made me run again after I stopped for some time. But above all, the feeling which we are left to run with an even greater purpose other than our physical and mental well-being is indescribable.<br><\/li><li><strong>Were there any changes in your lifestyle thanks to your participation?<\/strong><br><br>Yes. Due to a foot injury, I can&#8217;t run for long periods (maximum 20\/30 mins each time)\u2026 so I had given up on running. I came back thanks to Run4aChild. Admittedly, I don&#8217;t always run. Sometimes, I just go for walks because every km counts, but I finally got back to running and I feel great.<br><\/li><li><strong>What is your biggest motivation to join this cause?<\/strong><br><br>Knowing that I&#8217;m helping someone and more specifically a child! Physical exercise should be a part of our daily lives; however, with our hectic routines, sometimes it&#8217;s hard to keep up or make time for this. We are doing something for ourselves with these challenges, but we are doing something for people who need it. We all know that in some countries there are still people suffering, a lot of poverty, misery and people who need urgent help. We know that, but sometimes it is difficult to \u201cget to\u201d these places and to help people. On the one hand, they are far away, on the other hand, we never know which institutions to trust\u2026 with Run4aChild we are taking care of ourselves and at the same time, we are helping those in need. There are no words to describe this initiative.<br><\/li><li><strong>Would you recommend taking part in the initiative to anyone?<\/strong><br><br>Yes, for sure. In fact, I&#8217;m just sorry that the teams have a limited number of participants. I&#8217;ve already managed to invite some people and I know I could invite much more. It would be interesting, for instance, to bring students to this cause. It would be so important for them\u2026&nbsp;<br><\/li><li><strong>Do you have any advice for Run4aChild future runners?<\/strong><br><br>Participate with your heart and you will understand the magnitude of each of your steps.&nbsp;<br><\/li><li><strong>Will you join us in the upcoming challenge?&nbsp;<\/strong><br><br>Yes, please! I just hope these challenges never end\u2026<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1162\" height=\"1162\" src=\"https:\/\/www.run4achild.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Screenshot-2022-03-09-at-16.02.08.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-887\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congrats&nbsp;<strong>Roberta Frontini<\/strong>, you are an inspiration to us all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">May this testimonial be an inspiration to all of you that are participating in the Xod\u00f3 Challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep going, Runners!
