| On September 10th 2017 the City of Wroclaw will welcome the European Masters – the first time in EMA history a European Masters Championship in Marathon part of a big city marathon. The Polish Athletic Federation will support this event to make “Running for All” come true. The Federation will create a special competition licence that allows Polish athletes to take part in this championship marathon. |  |
The benefit of the Federation is obvious: if the runners don’t want to enter the Federation for a year, they can be part for special events – this might open another door. Will other Federation follow this idea?
EMA officers visited Wroclaw to work on the details of these championship and could witness a great night half marathon. LOC Director Wojciech Gestwa and his team gave a perfect example of a cooperation between the municipality, clubs, and hundreds of volunteers to create a race that motivated 10 000 participants.
