Marko will run 1.000 km of hope from Nis to Athens for the life of little Teodora: But, all of us must reach the goal (PHOTO) (VIDEO)
Motivational speaker and fitness expert Marko Nikolic decided to start the race from Nis to Athens to get the attention of the public on little Teodora and her health problems. Besides that, the family of this little girl lives in very bad conditions, their house is a ruin.
- I have found some sponsors but that is not enough, but unless some other sponsor answers I will be forced to go which becomes a lot riskier. I will have enough means to go to the end. I want to help little Teodora with this endeavor and she urgently needs a transplant of bone marrow in Bologne. The baby is just one year old and she is going on chemotherapy for the entire year, which keeps her alive. Although the humanitarian action is open, they haven't got any funds - the motivational speaker and the fitness expert said.
He will run a thousand kilometers and he hopes to gather the money for the treatment of the girl. People will be able to follow Marko's movement and current events on his Instagram profile.
- It took me a year to realize that it is possible. First I was afraid and I had doubts if I could do this, but in the end, I told myself that nothing is impossible in life. I have been through the tough periods in my life and I always ended up as a winner. I fell down countless times but I always returned stronger. I became immune to all problems. The time has come where people doubt in themselves and their qualities, they are afraid of leaving their comfort zone. I asked many people if that was possible, they told me it can't be done, but I answered - why do you say that it is not possible if you haven't tried it? - fitness expert explains why he decided to do something like this.
After all, he is not a marathon runner, but as he said, he is doing fitness and motivation and he is prepared to push the limits of possible.
- I am not afraid, I am so obsessed that I am prepared to die if necessary, I will be proud of myself because I have tried something no one else has. I have never trained for a medal or for a race, I have trained for life. To be prepared for everything the life throws at me, to endure all the bad things that are coming. If you keep saying to yourself that it is possible, you will convince yourself in the end that it is. Through risk, pain, and suffering to the ultimate victory. I always say, if you want to succeed, you have to suffer. In the moment when everything is collapsing around you and that there is no hope and that it is the end, the motivation is playing no role, you are no longer a human being, you become immortal and some higher force or energy is guiding you - Marko said.
He has a goal to cross 1.000 km in 20 days with his team, Vladimir Zdravkovic - driver and his girlfriend Stanislava Petrovic who will be there if something happens.
He thinks that all of us would be happy if we all chose a single baby or a sick person and did something.
- The times are bad, I know, people are cracking psychically, they lose hope, they give up easily. That is why I want to give a message to everybody when I reach the goal. Everything comes from our selves. Who we are, why we came to this world, what do we want from our lives. What is our purpose? I want to show everybody that everything is possible and not to lose hope, the times are difficult, life is one big exam, if you can endure it YOU WILL MAKE IT - Marko concludes his story for Telegraf.
