Skopje

Reported by Todorka Petrovska 21.0 km

We are lucky to be part of the WizzAir Marathon in the city of Skopje, where Mother Teresa was born. Several Peace Runners took part in the event in various distances.

There was an enthusiastic vibe at the start of the race.

The torch gives joy to the runners.

Some of the Peace Run team also had the opportunity to help at the Sri Chinmoy Marathon Team refreshment station where we handed out water and cheered on the runners by holding the torch.

Preetidutta ran the half marathon, here she is a few km from the finish line.

The joy that comes after finishing a race.

Many happy finishers were holding the peace torch.

The Peace torch among the fastest runners of today's race.

Many many thanks to JOY cafe & bakery for their enthusiastic participation. We will remember all those great pastries and excellent coffee.
