My opportunity - is the opportunity for another.
Hello friends,
My name is Eytan Gafni-Naky
I live in a small village named Alon in the Judean Desert, married to Hadas and father of three sweet children
Neta, Ruach-Midbar and Goni.
Why am I telling you about my personal life and family?
Well, that's exactly the message I want to start from - my running story and my life story, are one and the same.
When I run,
I feel alive.
But am also producing life for others.
I get opportunities for myself.
But also get the possibility to create opportunities for others.
And that is the basis of my strong relationship and connection with Shalva
A few months ago, when I was taking my first steps out of a long injury period in my running world, my good friend Doron Boxer called me and asked me if I was interested in helping coach a group of runners for the New York Marathon, on behalf of Shalva . And even help raise 25,000 NIS for the organization as part of the process.
My first instinct was to tell him that I'm afraid it is too early for me to prepare for a marathon after a long injury that I had for several years.
However, a few hours later I called him back and told him - Doron, I'm in!
I realized I was given a very special opportunity.
I was given the opportunity to create opportunities for others
And in addition, through running - through action and movement, which is an integral part of my life, I get to change the lives of other people and allow them to dream as well.
If you have also received opportunities in your life that are not taken for granted and you want to help me pass the opportunity on to others - go to the link below end lets's do it together 🙂
With lows and highs.
Between receiving and giving.
May we always shine for others. and happily🙏🏼
