Mari – The Long Walk 2020, Faro de Sardina del Norte – Faro de Maspalomas, over the highest mountain… #WeCrossMountains
BUY A Solidarity T-Shirt HERE to register for the walk
The amazing Mari Hartell was a student of The British School on Gran Canaria born and raised by her Finnish parents here on the island, she is a truly international character. Having become a teacher of languages and primary subjects, she also ran her own restaurant business and events company, and has a broad range of life experience, sassy and filled with fun.
A busy and caring mother, Mari has a hectic lifestyle but works as a rescue diver and a teacher, training in safety techniques at the Offshore OPITO certified training establishment “Grupo Stier” which also assists the wider offshore community in many other ways…… she has two beautiful daughters to whom she is devoted. She is also an avid animal lover with seemingly boundless levels of energy.
The Long Walkers stayed at her family finca in the hills above Maspalomas for two years running before she decided she was going to personally join the effort and walk coast to coast over her island home to raise money and awareness for the local Breast Cancer association and The Food Project and other local causes.
This will be her fourth solidarity walk over the island, aiming to prove to her two daughters that there are no limits in life other than the ones you set yourself. She is epic in every way and a total true hero.
When asked about her motivations Mari says “I wanted to challenge myself while at the same time really doing something to help others.”
