“A 54-year-old man from Poręby Dymarskie in the Podkarpackie voivodeship. At the age of 2, he suffered an accident that resulted in the amputation of both legs at the lower leg. He has been using prostheses since the age of 4. The rehabilitation stay, for which he will receive funding, will allow him to stay in good shape, move independently with prostheses, live actively, and work. His passions are mountains and motorization. He recently became a grandfather, and his dream is to be able to go hiking in the mountains with his grandson someday."

“A 70-year-old woman from Kędzierzyn-Koźle in the Opole voivodeship. She is a lively retiree who lost one leg at the lower leg in 2024 and the other at the thigh in 2025 as a result of atherosclerosis. Although she is very good at getting around in a wheelchair, she dreams of standing on her “prosthetic legs” and seeing the world “from an upright position” again. She has always been very active, traversing forest trails on her bike or with walking sticks. She believes that thanks to the rehabilitation stay, which she will take part in thanks to the PBR 2025 runners, she will not only meet other people with similar experiences, but also learn to walk on crutches and will soon be able to take short walks in the area. Her passion is cooking, and she is also professionally involved in this field, feeding her family delicious meals every day."

“A 24-year-old man from Napachanie in the Wielkopolska voivodeship. In 2024, he had a traffic accident, as a result of which he had to undergo amputation of his right leg at the thigh. He is a chef – it is not only his profession, but also his passion and life path, which gives him great satisfaction. Before the accident, he regularly went to the gym and ran, and exercise was a natural part of his life. Today, going for a walk is difficult for him. PBR 2025 runners will subsidize a prosthetic leg for Michał, giving him a chance to return to normality, professional and physical activity."
