This second race expects to gather 2,000 participants on November 13.
The Valladolid Sports House has hosted the presentation of the II race/walk ‘Diabetes is not my limit’, which will take place on Sunday, November 13, at 11:00 hours.
A test that expects to have about 2,000 participants in its three career modalities (6 kilometers and registration of 5 euros), walk (3 kilometers and 5 euros) or children's race (2 euros) after 1,500 last year.
The race/walk, as explained by the Councilor for Sports, Youth and Citizen Participation of the City of Valladolid, Alberto Bustos, and the vice president of the Diabetes Valladolid Association, Javier García, will take place in the surroundings of the Central Paseo del Campo Grande."Valladolid is a solidarity city, with solidarity people, so we celebrate this race taking advantage of the fact that day 14 is World Diabetes Day," said the first in the presentation.
Precisely the blood test will be repeated to detect the diabetes that will be held last year, with the objective that the 2,000 participants that are expected can detect whether they are patients or not, since in many occasions it is unknown."In different points of the race and in the next few days, for example around the City Council, Diputación or the Courts of Castilla y León, these diagnoses that really are worth it will be made," said Garcia, who explained that there will also be actionsmusicals and activities on the recolete sidewalk.
For his part, the Councilor for Sports, Alberto Bustos, wanted to highlight that the race/walk fully coincides with the objectives that are marked from the Municipal Sports Foundation.«Open sport, on the street, which motivates the population to exercise.It is also a solidarity evidence, which linked sport to social responsibility.People always respond ».
