This talk continues the spirit of our recent SHE Moves: Run, Connect, and Be Inspired event—an unforgettable gathering where over 50 participants came together to move their bodies, open their hearts, and start the year with purpose.

Held on January 12th in the serene surroundings of Stryisky Park in Lviv, this 5 km run brought together runners, joggers, walkers, and even a few furry friends. Led by passionate amateur triathletes Valentina Synenka and Olena Moroz, who had just completed races across five exotic countries in 2024—including Rwanda and New Zealand—the event was as much about sharing stories as it was about moving forward together.

After the run, the energy didn’t stop. Over breakfast at Kilinskyy Restaurant, participants laughed, reflected, and exchanged personal goals for the year ahead. It wasn’t just a fitness event—it was a spark of empowerment, a celebration of community, and a reminder of how strong and connected we are when we come together with intention.

What to Expect 

• Stories from Valentina and Olena’s triathlon adventures across five countries: Oman, Italy, Luxembourg, Rwanda, and New Zealand 
• How traveling and racing pushed them to grow mentally and physically 
• The importance of community support on their journey 
• Insights into the mindset and discipline required to compete at an elite level

Meet the Speakers 

Valentina Synenka

Founder of the SHE Community, and Board Member at Symphony Solutions

From completing five Ironman 70.3 races to competing at the World Championship, Valentina’s journey is a testament to strength, vision, and determination. She inspires others not only through sport but by creating spaces where women can grow, connect, and thrive.

Olena Moroz

Traveler, Triathlete, and Runner

Olena has embraced running and traveling as powerful, life-changing tools for personal growth. Her story proves that persistence and passion can transform how we see ourselves and the world—one race, one journey at a time.

Making a Real Difference 

This event also highlights the powerful charity initiative behind SHE Moves: Charity Run, which raised 250,000 UAH in support of the We Are Free initiative by With an Angel on a Shoulder Foundation.  

Thanks to this generous donation—driven by the efforts of participants and a key contribution from Symphony Solutions—15 people across four families, including Viktoriia Ostroushko, a mother recently released from captivity after 1.5 years of separation from her children, are now receiving vital care and support. 

This is a powerful reminder that when communities come together, real healing becomes possible.
