Thousands of runners took to the streets of Limassol on Saturday for the XM Limassol Marathon, with wet weather doing little to dampen the atmosphere at the island’s largest annual running event.
Starting from the Limassol Molos, the event features six race distances catering to runners of all ages and abilities. Transport Minister Alexis Vafeades was among those present at the event.
The Primetel Corporate 5km Race drew more than 10,000 entries across 260 company teams, while over 1,500 children took part in the McDonald’s Kids Race, a one-kilometre course supported by McDonald’s Cyprus.
Among the participants are teams representing Foundation 365 — “Yparcho (I exist)” and “365 Dream Team” — running in support of the foundation’s social mission.
