100 km to help Lera
Event: Denis_Portnoy
- Fund project: Акция помощи детям, нуждающимся в протезах рук
My name is Denis Portnoy and I am the current Russian record holder in daily swimming, two-time winner of SwimCup Minutes Ultra 180 - 2020 and 2021, winner of X-Waters Ural 10km 2021, multiple winner of SwimCup, SwimStar and Oceanman. I trained a lot to achieve such success in swimming. Although I am not a professional athlete, I want to show people by my example that everything is possible. You just need to really want it and work hard. On July 20-23, 2022, I plan to swim 100 km in open water as part of the Grand Swim Challenge 100 ultramarathon. This is a swim that connects two islands - Orekhovy and Kotlin and two fortresses - Oreshek and Kronstadt. The swim will unite three water elements - Lake Ladoga, the Neva River and the sea - the Gulf of Finland. In addition to my goals for this swim, I want to do a small good deed - to help 5-year-old Lera Uskova. From birth, the girl has no arm, and now she needs a traction functional prosthesis, because without it, problems with the musculoskeletal system and posture cannot be avoided. The fundraiser for Lera is organized by the Vse Vse Vmeste Charitable Foundation, and I ask all those who are not indifferent to help me raise the amount that is not enough to buy a prosthesis. After all, children cannot choose what they will be born with. However, they have the right to a full life, and bodily defects should not become an obstacle. Let the little man also live a full life and achieve his goals! View more >>
