Every April, the city of
Almaty holds a marathon.
It started as a small event
Nn 2012, with around 2,500
runners, but in 2015 the
number increased to
19,000. People come from
many countries to take
part. There are runners
from Russia, Kyrgyzstan,
the UK, the USA, Italy,
Spain, Denmark and
Norway, but most people come from Almaty and
other parts of Kazakhstan.
The organizers started the marathon to promote
healthier lifestyles. Everyone knows exercise is good
for you, but sometimes it is difficult to find the time to
do sport. But people like challenges, and a marathon
gives them something to aim for. It's impossible to
do nothing all year then run 42 km. You have to train
and increase the distance you run over a number of
months. Apart from the marathon, there are other
shorter events in the year to keep people interested
in running.
Anyone living in Almaty can enter the marathon,
so families and friends can enter together and this
helps people feel part of the city. The event also raises
money for disabled children to do sport and gives
them a better life.
Over 20,000 people enter and watch the marathon)
so the organizers need lots of volunteers to give eachy
runner food and drink and show them where to go.
Anyone can volunteer; you don't need to be from
Almaty or good at running to do this, but you do
need a lot of energy, and it is better to do something
for your community than not do anything.
