All Runners
Are Beautiful
The philosophy of ALL RUNNERS ARE BEAUTIFUL, embraced by Napoli Running,
is to bring together runners of all kinds, nationalities, convictions and abilities, in
running races to celebrate diversity and the common love for sport, setting aside
social, physical and cultural differences.

The spirit of “All Runners Are Beautiful” embraced by us
in Naples, is embodied in a young man from the Czech
Republic. A runner who made stubbornness the secret
of his success. He is Lukáš Petrusek. Lukáš suffers from
achondroplasia, a congenital pathology that prevented
proper development and could have even stopped him from
walking, and stunted his growth at 140 cm. Fortunately,
it had no effect on his spirit or his determination. And in
the past year, he has completed 11 marathons, averaging
nearly one marathon every month.
