Enterprise Accomplished: Thank you for your Support!
1 month, 1 week ago
The Venice-Antelao, a project that started as a joke some time ago, which I was able to realize with my friends in an even more extraordinary way, also adding a Multiple Sclerosis awareness initiative.
In addition to having completed the feat of riding 155 km with 1800 m of elevation gain by bike from Venice to San Vito and climbing the 2300 m to the summit of Antelao, we achieved and surpassed the goal of raising funds for Multiple Sclerosis research. More importantly, we were able to raise awareness of this reality and send a message of hope, strength and inspiration to those who followed us in this challenge!
It was a complete success for me, both athletically and humanely, and I really hope that sharing my experience helped someone.
Special thanks go to my friends-Simone, who finished the challenge with me all the way to the top; Riccardo, who suffered with us all the way to San Vito and then up to the bivouac; my brother Nicola for logistical support; Marco and Giorgia for their help all the way to the Galassi Hut and the long wait while we were at the summit; and Luca for the T-shirts.
Thanks to all my friends who encouraged me and believed in me.
During the challenge I talked about finding beauty in every change, I can say I found a lot of it in this one, both inside me and outside. I am having new experiences and meeting unique people I would not have met otherwise, and for that I am grateful!
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to all of you who have donated. Your support has been instrumental in bringing this endeavor to fruition and achieving our goal, contributing to Multiple Sclerosis awareness and research. Together, we have made a difference!
