Ukraine-Poland back and forth, a half marathon, culture and last but not least collegial gathering. Everything in less than 24 hours.

That was what the Ukrainian Country Manager, Ievgenii Ivanytsia, performed when he participated in a half marathon in Gdansk together with Polish colleagues from KLUB BIEGACZY JYSK.

"I have always been inspired by Country Manager in Poland, Piotr Padalak's, running culture. So when he mentioned that he planned to participate in the half marathon, I asked if I could join him," Ievgenii says.

It was the first time Ievgenii participated in a half marathon and it was a good experience.

"The Polish team has a fantastic team spirit and it was a great pleasure to run with them," he says.
