In Zagreb, for the first time, the Start Camp race was held for amputees. It is a sporting event in which eight people with lower extremity amputation with the support of a multidisciplinary team of athletic trainers, runners, physiotherapists and orthopedic technicians had the opportunity to learn how to run.
The first day of the Start Race Club was held at the Zagreb Athletic Hall at the Zagreb Fair where amputees athletes made their first runners-up with sports prostheses.
The organizer is former Paralympics and Medalist Ana Sršen, now president of the Association of the Amputees of the city of Zagreb.
A beautiful and strong woman that I have been interwied many times and she never leaves me indifferent.
Physical activity is especially important for human health, and in the city of Zagreb, only 0.008 percent of people with disabilities are involved in kinesiological activities.
The problem is that people who use dentures in their everyday life do not have any prophecies that can support them. They want to change the rulebook on orthopedic aids or seek dentures that will suit individual needs.
People with amputation face difficulties in realizing different rights every day.
However, motivation is the key to everything.
The association invites people with amputation to engage in such and similar projects. Their aim is to point at the abilities that people with amputation have. They can find out that they have potential only if they are offered an opportunity.
These people are evidence that obstacles exist only in the head.
