This Saturday, 18 March, the eleventh edition of the Rondo 1 Run Up will take place in Warsaw. The event has been supporting the pupils of the SOS Children's Village in Kraśnik for years. The list of participants is already closed!

The 38 floors leading to the finish line will be run by more than 600 participants in the event. Among them will be the ambassador of the SOS Children's Villages Association in Poland, TV presenter Tomasz Wolny.

This will be my first start in this run. 38 floors to run sounds like a challenge, but as a man of action, as a man and as a dad, I like such challenges. I'm running for the kids because this event supports SOS Children's Villages in Poland, which I've been with for years. I know the kids, the SOS parents and the experts who do their best every day to give their charges a real home. With our run we want to make some noise, so that as many people as possible learn about this extraordinary work of SOS Villages and support them, because without this, this work will be impossible.

Maja Makowska, known as Sugar Woman, will also be at the start line. She is an athlete who has been suffering from type I diabetes for years, but who nevertheless promotes a healthy, active lifestyle and takes up sporting challenges; last year she completed, among others, a triathlon competition over the Double Ironman distance. Also noteworthy is the start of Joanna Mazur and Michał Stawicki. They are a pair belonging to the Athletics Team of Poland for Persons with Disabilities. Traditionally, several floors will also be climbed by children from the SOS Children's Village in Kraśnik, who, as every year, will be present at Rondo 1. This time they will be joined by charges of the Sonia Foundation, young athletes with Down syndrome.

In the 10-year history of the run to date, runners' contributions have helped raise a total of more than PLN 270,000.

All indications are that this year the total amount will exceed PLN 300,000. The exact amount of funds collected in this year's edition of the run will be announced on the day of the event, i.e. this Saturday, 18 March.
