Last Sunday, the ROVI Team went out for a run, ready to break down walls with their running shoes. Specifically, the wall of stigma and discrimination suffered by people with mental health problems. And there is no better event than the Race for Mental Health, organised by the Fundación Manantial, to highlight the importance of social and occupational inclusion for people suffering from these pathologies.
In this year’s edition, setting a new record for participation, nearly 200 ROVI employees set out to run through the centre of Madrid, accompanied by more than 3,000 runners. The route, which varied between 10, 5 and 2.8 km depending on the mode, took the participants through a circuit that started in the Parque del Oeste, crossed Plaza de España to the Royal Palace and turned around leaving Colón behind.
