Running For Our Health annual marathon

The Hotel Samba Vallarta by Emporio Hotels & Suites owned by Grupo Diestra in collaboration with the Groups and Events desk of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) extend an invitation to join in the 4th Annual 3 – 7K Flamingos Run set for September 24, 2016, at the Condominio Maestro Flamingos in the Riviera Nayarit.

Using the slogan “Running For Our Health,” this year’s race extends from 5 to 7 kilometers in four separate categories: Women Collaborators, Women’s Open, Men Collaborators and Men’s Open.

The 3-kilometer walk will still have only one category that includes men, women, collaborators and the general public.

Activities begin on Saturday, September 24th at 7 a.m. with the distribution of sports packets and a briefing on the race, followed by warm-up exercises. The starting shot is expected to be fired around 8 a.m. The award ceremony will begin at 9 a.m.

This year’s race has a cause: to help those in need, which is why the registration cost consists of cans or kilos of non-perishable food items that will be distributed to the most vulnerable.

Registration is open up until the day of the race. To participate please dial 01 (322) 226-8250 Ext. 871 y 872 or email [email protected].
