46-year-old Džemo lives in a village with his mother, father and brother. He cares for ten cows every day thereby earning a living for his family. Džemo’s day starts and ends with a pushcart, his constant companion on daily more than 20-kilometer-runs. His boyhood dream was to take part in large running events which is why he always applies for city and mountain races. Despite hard labour demanded by a life in the rural area, and the fact that he competes against professional athletes, Džemo wins gold medals regularly.
