The Berazubi stadium in Tolosa will host the Bueltaka event this Sunday, September 20th, organized by the association Tolosaldea Sahararekin, from 09:30 to 13:30.

The aim of this initiative is for participants to complete as many laps as possible around the stadium. One euro will be donated for each lap completed, and the funds raised will be used to support the Sahrawi people. Participants will pay 12.50 euros for 5 kilometers, 25 euros for 10 kilometers, 52.50 euros for 21 kilometers, and 105 euros for completing the marathon of 42 kilometers.
The association reminds that participation is possible individually or in groups, and running is not mandatory; participants can also walk. Several citizens, companies, associations, and groups of friends have already committed to participate, with some pledging to pay for a specific number of laps and others allowing someone else to run later.
To enhance the event's atmosphere, a solidarity shop and a bar will be set up at the stadium. Additionally, there will be a Saharan tent offering Sahrawi tea, dates, and other products.
The organizers emphasized that Bueltaka is more than just a race and have encouraged all citizens to participate. "It is also an opportunity to raise awareness about the reality faced by the Sahrawi people, express solidarity, and spend a pleasant morning together," they stated. They extend an invitation to everyone to come to Berazubi, whether with friends, colleagues, sports teams, or association members, to complete as many laps as possible.
