A DISTANCE, A ROUTE AND A CITY FOR YOU.
A new edition of the EDP Vitoria-Gasteiz Maratón Martín Fiz is here and, as in previous editions, I continue to be excited about an event that bears my name, as well as being held in the city where I was born, Vitoria-Gasteiz.
Running a marathon is a possible challenge. Health to train, exercise, run to achieve physical and mental strength and feel young. Running makes us strong. After more than 35 years running all over the world and, after having proclaimed myself Marathon World Champion in 1995, what things are, twenty-five years after the achievement, I continue with the same passion for running, which is why I He has become the first athlete in the world to win the Six Majors (New York, Tokyo, Boston, Berlin and Chicago and London) and I have achieved it in the category for those over 50 years of age. Running gives me life, I feel happy with what I do, I love sharing strides with the more than three thousand athletes who I hope will join me on the starting grid. Recounting athletic adventures is a feeling of aging, counteracted when every day I maintain the physical and mental vitality to continue wearing sneakers and running.
Vitoria-Gasteiz is a town of good athletes and great runners. It would make me very happy to see the center of the city populated by marathon athletes, friends and indefatigable companions. The public encouraging everyone equally as if it were an Olympic marathon and this year is the Olympic year, Tokyo Olympics 2020. Applause for the first and just as loud for the athletes who lag behind. This year, EDP Vitoria-Gasteiz Maratón Martín Fiz, we return to the urban center of the city, a two-lap route designed by myself, flatter and more central where you will feel the breath of the public, suitable for anyone who is going to participate to get their best record.
Vitoria-Gasteiz is a binomial of Tourism and Sports and you will feel it in the comfort of getting around, its gastronomy, cultural tourism and of course, running in a European Green Capital.
What do you want to run? We have a distance for you: Race for children, popular 10 kilometers, Half Marathon and Marathon. And the day before the race, what you cannot miss is the Breakfast Run where we will train together and enjoy a healthy breakfast afterward. You choose.
My city and in my marathon I only hope that you achieve your wishes, personal and sporting.
See you running! See you at EDP Vitoria-Gasteiz Martín Fiz Marathon
