We supported movement, solidarity and shared joy - Run, Bekim! Run! in Pezinok
On Sunday, 14 September 2025, a charity run Run, Bekim! Run!, which showed that movement can connect hearts and change lives. This charity event appealed to us not only as donors, but also as part of a community that believes in the power of sport and helping.
The goal of the run and its message
Running is not just about discipline or miles run. It is a gesture of solidarity and openness that fulfils the idea of the common good.
All the funds raised were donated to the non-profit organisation Pod krídlami Dominika, which supports the help of children with serious illnesses and people with disabilities in cooperation with the REWALK centre.
Participants symbolically joined together on the course, inspired by the famous story of Forrest Gump, who said, "My mother said you should help. And I love to help. But how could I help? And then I remembered I could run."
At one point, all the runners put on the same caps, sending a clear signal of unity and support.
Categories and course of action
The event was open to all, regardless of age or fitness, and offered different running categories: - 5 km and 11 km for adult men and women - children's sprint for the little ones - a category for people with disabilities with a time limit of 12 minutes - each circuit counted as a symbolic aid
The route led through the picturesque Chateau Park and the surrounding vineyard paths, where the atmosphere was friendly and encouraging.
Our joy of support
Run Run, Bekim! Run!!! was supported this year as part of our annual corporate 108 Steps Challenge, which ran throughout June. Each colleague has a goal to walk at least 10,800 steps a day - and if we can do it as a team, we'll make a donation to a good cause.
This year, we collectively walked an incredible 17,496,000 steps, which turned into support for an event that literally moved the community and brought people together across differences.
