The run also features Hana Giang Anh – a fitness blogger who inspired Vietnamese youth to live a healthy and helpful life to the community. Hana was excited to participate in her very first stair run – challenging but rewarding. The biggest reason that Hana flew to Danang to participate in the run was to contribute to the mission of raising the fundings for children with cleft lips and cleft palate. This is also a chance for Hana to support the community and spread out this beautiful message for more people.
