B
On a bright September day in the French Alps in 2022, John McAvoy was 38 kilometres into a very exhausting ultramarathon through rough mountain paths. Battling tiredness, he pushed his body and mind through the final leg of the race. With the finish arch in the famous town of Chamonix just four kilometres away and the cloud - topped peak of Mont Blanc high over him, McAvoy welled up with emotion.
In that moment, he felt so free and alive. It was quite the opposite from where his life had been a decade before. He had just been released from prison after serving a 10 - year sentence.
Now 40 years old, McAvoy has spent the last 10 years rebuilding his life from one of crime to one with purpose. It was on this day, while running the ultramarathon, that he realized how impactful conquering(征服) this mountain run could be for inner - city kids like him. After all, sport had helped him live a normal life again and open up his world. It could do the same for others.
With the help of Youth Beyond Borders, McAvoy started the Alpine Run Project, which recently led 12 disadvantaged British young people through their own Mont Blanc races. The participants, from refugees(难民) to young reformed criminals and those who grew up in Children's home, were matched with coaches, consultants and physiotherapists. After a six - month training program, the youth travelled to the Alps to meet up with McAvoy for their race.
McAvoy says the highlight of this project for him was watching Yasmin Mahamud, a 20 - year - old refugee from Syria, run through the finish arch and into the arms of her new friends. It was a life - changing high for Mahamud, too—inspiring her to keep running, take up martial arts and go to university to study physiotherapy.
“It changed my point of view on life,” says Mahamud. Pushing herself to complete the race gave her a brief experience of her own potential through hard work and devotion. “I will always be thankful to John for giving me this opportunity and guidance.”
