Run together apart
Who we are
We love to run and as runners, we would like to share our passion for running. We run with a purpose because we want to motivate others and we want to support people who are in need.
Our goal is to spread joy for running and create a supporting environment where people from all countries of the world, all sexes, races, and religions could run on equal ground. We want to connect runners, we want to motivate runners and not runners only, and we want to make running fun and let you to get new friends for life.
Running unites and running makes this world a better place.
Join us and help us to spread the joy of running across the world!
My name is Ingrida and I´m a runner.
I started to run in 2013. At the beginning, I could barely run a kilometer, and now I have completed 6 marathons.
I love to run because I like how my mind and body feel after run, and running helps me to stay in shape and be a better version of myself.
My name is Angelo. My running journey is a long one. I started running since I was a kid and was always competitive. I really started competitive running in high school to college. After many years of running and stopping, I decided to embrace my competitive side and take on the half marathon. Maybe one day I will take on the marathon like Ingrida 💪
HOW IT ALL STARTED AND WHY
Angelo shared a post on his account with a friendly running competition of his followers versus other runner followers. Ingrida accepted the challenge and that's how they met and the #live2runvsrun4fun competition begun. It was fun, challenging, and comfort zone breaking. After the competition, Angelo and Ingrida have kept in touch and continued to support and challenge each other. This is how an idea about a virtual run and fundraising for charity was born.
They have never met in a real-life, but they decided to bring their running to a new level by raising money for cancer research so as many as possible people would stay alive and fight it. Unfortunately, Ingrida's dad didn't make it through and he has passed away about two years ago.
We hope that our donation will contribute and will help to save other people's lives.
