Brian Casingena Completes Remarkable 100km Charity Run in Under Ten Hours

Maltese endurance runner Brian Casingena has successfully completed an extraordinary 100-kilometre charity challenge, finishing in an impressive 9 hours, 27 minutes and 52 seconds on Sunday, 15 November.

The demanding run, organised in aid of the Sandra Calleja Foundation, began at 4am and involved repeated five-kilometre loops around Ta’ Qali before concluding in Qormi.

The initiative held special personal significance for Casingena, whose aunt, Sandra Calleja, passed away from a brain tumour in 2009, aged just 36.

Established in her memory, the foundation supports initiatives involving education, healthcare, environmental sustainability and community development.

Following his achievement, Casingena expressed his immense gratitude to everyone who supported him throughout the challenge.

“What a day, what a run!” he wrote on social media, thanking those who encouraged him along the route.

He also acknowledged the sponsors and volunteers whose assistance allowed him to concentrate entirely on completing the distance.

Supported by MyConvenience and MySupermarket, the initiative brought together sport, determination and charitable giving.

Casingena’s achievement represents an inspiring demonstration of endurance and generosity, transforming a demanding physical challenge into a meaningful tribute to his late aunt.
