We are in Las Comas in Barcelona, at the Spartan Race...
And today there are 66 of us here representing Ilunion Hotels... To pay tribute
to all the disabled people who work at our organisation and who face
many obstacles every day... Today is about fighting and thats what were going to do.
Exhausting, both physically and mentally. Dealing with a disability
every day of your life, 365 days a year, must get really
really tiring.
Really tough but really special too.
Why was it special?
Because I felt that I had to help her a lot. We found it really difficult at times, and I was a bit overwhelmed.
and I was a bit overwhelmed.
Phew! Im not going to lie, it was pretty hard.
Hmm... For me it was almost more difficult to be a guide than blind because I was so worried
about Jos ngel. He kept tripping up and stumbling and I couldnt do anything
because there were so many stones and slopes and he really put in an amazing effort.
Its a message, a lesson that we cant ignore whats going on around us.
We cant forget that there are many people who need that warmth, that guidance
that help, those words, that message, that encouragement that we often don't realise
is needed.
