Jo\u00e3o Santos<\/strong>, member of the “Tejo Runners” team and a top athlete that has been committed continuously with Run4aChild, participating in all our challenges! Thank you for your dedication!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. How did you hear about Run4aChild?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Answer: <\/strong>Through Rita, former work colleague, who is a WIT-Software employee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. In how many challenges did you participate and how many times did you reach the individual goal (120km)?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Answer: <\/strong>I participated in all of them, and I always reached the 120km – in fact always by a wide margin \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. What is your biggest motivation to join Run4aChild?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Answer:<\/strong> to support good causes and help WIT Software to be recognized in that area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        1. What was your favorite challenge and why?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Answer: <\/strong>I really identified with Challenge #4 “Cyclone Idai” because it had a time component, i.e. immediate help was needed at that moment given the catastrophic event that occurred. I felt that WIT Software was aware of the state of the world and ready to act. In any case, I found all the challenges extremely interesting and they always gave me the opportunity to learn about some reality that was more unknown to me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          1. Do you have any suggestions for the implementation of Run4aChild?<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Answer:<\/strong> Sometimes when I sign in again, I am asked for authorization to my Strava account data. This should only happen the first time. The feeling is that the authorization is lost and as an athlete I am left in doubt if the kms have been well accounted for the last days\/weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            Congratulations Jo\u00e3o Santos, you are an inspiration to us all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            May this testimony be an inspiration to everyone who wants to run for a cause and achieve results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Keep going, Runners! The Challenge ends on September 30th<\/sup>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
