"We are different, in essence, from other men. If you want to win something, run 100 meters. If you want to experience something, run a marathon."
Emil Zatopek, Czech runner winner of four Olympic gold metals

As any Marathon, it has been epic and heroic.
Riccardo made it ! He run his first marathon !
Riccardo was feeling very well until he started to suffer cramps at the 22cd Kms.
With 20 kms remaining , legs like wood, Riccardo was very doubtful to be able to finish the race.
Many times he thought to quit, helping children as a purpose he refused to listen the dictates of his body.
Thanks to his will he pushed his limits of the day.
Gradually, he started to feel better, to eventually feel the incomparable joy to cross the line.
