In their invitation, the organizers state:
“Young and old, come walk or run with us!
The race will start from the Karavolas Bridge and finish at our Venetian fortress, Koules.
At the finish line, DJ Themis Markakis will welcome us with fantastic music, along with delightful treats!
This route is designed to inspire you to enjoy a Sunday by the sea and our iconic castle in a truly special way.
This initiative is part of a series of actions by our volunteer team to raise awareness about education and sports in our community.”
