Last Saturday, October 4th, the fourth edition of the FISIOSAN 5K solidarity race and walk took place, an event held on Avenida de Playa Honda and organized by the Fisiosan Physiotherapy Center and the San Bartolomé City Council, through the Department of Sports.
As every year, the objective of the event has been to raise funds for local associations in Lanzarote. In this edition, the donation has been 3,180 euros, which has been allocated to the Asociación Saltamos las Barreras, which fights for the inclusion in the sports field of students from key classrooms, adapted FP, and special education from the different educational centers of Lanzarote.
FISIOSAN 5K is an inclusive event where, once again, the participants have shown their most supportive side with a resounding success in participation, from children of 2 years old to the oldest participant in the 86-year-old walk, with a total of 560 participants. In addition, the race included a group of participants in the Nordic walking modality, members of Canarias Nordic Walking.
Special mention to all participants in wheelchairs or with some functional diversity who make this event increasingly inclusive. Among them, the members of C.D. UNINSU, our island's wheelchair hockey team.
