Al Maratón con Serrano

The 2016 Trinidad Alfonso Valencia Marathon is not far away. To help runners prepare for the big day we are ready to launch this year’s ‘The Marathon with Serrano’ training sessions.

Training for the Trinidad Alfonso Valencia Marathon will be kicked up a gear over the next few months for runners all around the world. Here in Spain we are helping runners prepare for the event with training sessions that focus on fitness, injury recovery, diet, coping strategies and all the variables that can influence training and running the distance of 42.195km on the day itself.

Recycle your effort

The Trinidad Alfonso Foundation would like to reward in a very unique way the effort and the commitment the runners have shown in order to keep the city clean from race related rubbish after the event, which brings together such a large amount of spectators and runners.

With this in mind throughout the race, the runners can take part in the initiative, “Recicla tu Esfuerzo” (“Recycle your effort”). On the race day near the refreshment stations and finish line there are special rubbish containers strategically placed for the collection of plastic drinks containers and organic rubbish.

Paella Party

There are many ways to discover Valencia and one of them is through the city’s cuisine. The idea of a pasta party has been adapted to reflect local tastes with a dish that is just as healthy: The Paella Party La Fallera.

The Paella Party will be held on Saturday 6th December near to the Expo 42K Feria Valencia entry (in the Runners’ Expo).

Once at the Paella Party La Fallera, participants will be able to pick up their picnic consisting of a plate of paella, as well as a drink, bread and fruit, to enjoy, if they wish, at the tables in the entry area.

In order to participate in La Paella Party La Fallera it is necessary to purchase a ticket previously through our website. The price is €6 for registered runners (or companions).

Valencia Mini Marathon

The parallel activities organised by the Valencia Marathon Trinidad Alfonso Zurich this year will once again feature the race most eagerly anticipated by the youngest runners: the Valencia MSC Mini Marathon.

The race is held the day before the adult marathon in the area around the City of Arts and Sciences and is organised by SD Correcaminos and Valencia City Council. It will be held on Saturday 6 December at midday. All of the children’s races will be NON-COMPETITIVE and, thanks to MSC, all the youngsters taking part will receive a commemorative medal, a gymsack and a reusable bottle, while Coca-Cola provided water to help the runners recover from their efforts.

Registration costs 3 euros, which go entirely to the charity of the Valencia Marathon 2025: Fundación Pequeño Deseo.

Impuls-a València

[vcr_youtube_advanced url=”https://youtu.be/7ub76lg6cpw'” width=”640″ height=”360″ responsive=”no” autohide=”yes” rel=”no” https=”yes”]
Impuls-a València is the main parallel activity in the Trinidad Alfonso EDP Valencia Marathon. The Trinidad Alfonso Foundation and the CIDIDA Foundation organize this charity event.

The fourth edition of Impuls-a València will be presented by the journalist José Luís López and it will start off with a lecture by Cristina Mitre in the conference hall Santiago Grisolía. Cristina Mitre is a journalist, writer and a lecturer. She writes for her popular blog The Beauty Mail (thebeautymail.com), and she has already published two successful books: Mujeres que corren: todo lo que necesitas saber sobre el running (‘Women who run: everything you need to know about running’) “Correr es vivir a tope de power: lecciones vitales a golpe de zapatilla” (‘Running is living life to the fullest: vital lessons on running’).

Mitre also started the social movement ‘Women who run’ in Spain and Portugal, which aims at promoting sports among women and raising funds for childhood leukaemia research.

After her lecture, the documentary Km. 0. Correr, vivir, cambiar…Empezar de nuevo (‘Km. O. Run, live, change… Start again’) will be screened. This documentary is set in the 5K Circuit of Jardí del Túria, where many runners have shared their experiences and stories since it was opened a year ago. In the documentary, runners tell us about the importance of running and the impact it has had on their daily life.

All tickets sales will be donated to the charity chosen by the Marathon.

Paddle Surf

Who hasn’t wished they could “walk” on water beyond the limits of cliffs and beaches? Who doesn’t dream of discovering a thousand hidden places on the coast? Discovering rivers and lakes from a different point of view?

All of this is possible with “Stand Up Paddle Surfing” or SUP, which is a water sport consisting of standing on a board while using a paddle to move around. Runners could participate in both races and Yoga sessions on the boards, and also practicde rotation techniques and many other activities related to this wonderful sport.
