Oropesa del Mar successfully celebrates the seventh edition of the Night Run along the Vía Verde

Last Friday the town of Oropesa del Mar organized a new edition of  the Night Run, a five kilometer race that offers participants the opportunity to compete in an exciting time trial along the well-known Greenway.

This sporting event brought together many athletes to tour one of the most emblematic places in the municipality. The event started from the Torre Bellver-Playetes urbanization, the starting point of the Greenway, where the runners started the race in stages starting at 9 p.m. In this edition, the teams were able to participate in pairs or family teams, leaving each minute consecutively.

The mayor, Araceli de Moya, has highlighted the attractiveness of the town to develop sports tourism: “Initiatives like this highlight the great tourism and sports potential of our municipality. Oropesa del Mar has multiple natural places to enjoy sports and our free time.”  

This event is part of one of the initiatives organized by the Department of Sports for this summer. The next event will be on Saturday, August 12, for the celebration of the XIX Volta a peu Vila d'Orpesa.
