The fifth edition of the Tirana Marathon marked a large number of competitors with about 2500 people, where 1500 were from Albania and 1000 from different countries of the world. The marathon is divided into four categories, 42 K Marathon, 21 K Half Marathon, 10 K Tirana and the category ‘Edhe ne’, announced for each category with 3 winners.
The gun signaled the start of the run and Skanderbeg Square shook with runners. Our volunteers accompanied the We Too participants during the run and made sure everything was in order. They first got to know them and had time to socialize before the start of the competition and also met with the head of the ‘Special Olympics Albania’ organization.
It was a different experience for our volunteers where they got an inspiring example of courage and determination. After all the chaos that the world went through, such events make things a little more lively and exciting for people’s hearts. And seeing all these young people trying to help voluntarily, it felt that humanity could never be lost.
