My motivation
Fundraising for cause areas including:
Mental health and suicide prevention

Hey friends! This December, I’m taking on one of my biggest challenges yet: running the entire 150-kilometer shore length of Lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee) with over 5,000 meters of elevation—and aiming to do it in record time. The goal is to complete it in under 21 hours. Every hard step is dedicated to raising awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.

I struggled with alcohol abuse, drinking daily, waking up with bottles by my bed, and no memory of the night before. Life felt empty, and I reached a breaking point where I had to tell my parents I didn’t want to go on. I was at a crossroads: either end it all or make a change.

I chose change, and running gave me a life I couldn’t have imagined. It became a way to find purpose, channel the weight of my past, and work through my struggles. Even now, I sometimes find it hard to feel proud of myself. I don’t always recognize the person who ran the UTMB or conquered other big challenges. Looking in the mirror, I often still see someone who carries the scars of past disappointments, haunted by the need to prove myself each day.

This Movember, I’ll be running every day to raise funds for men’s mental health through the Movember Foundation. Then, on December 7th, I’ll take on this epic Lake Lucerne run. I’m doing it to prove to myself and others that change is possible and that struggles can be transformed into strength.

If my story resonates with you, or if you know someone who could use a reminder that they’re not alone, please join me on this journey. Whether by supporting the cause, sharing the message, or running a few kilometers yourself, together, we can make an impact. Every kilometer, every step, and every shared story counts.
