Career The sport career of Valeria started when she was only an universitary student in Foreign Languages and she practiced running only just for fun. In 2010, her life and sport activity were strongly marked by a surgery leading to the spleen's removal in 2010. After that, she restarted to run, gaining precious successes by international championships, as the national record of 2h23'44" at the Rotterdam Marathon in 2012.
