23rd INTERNATIONAL MARATHON OF SÃO PAULO COMMEMORATES MORE A POSITIVE BALANCE

São Paulo (SP) - The International Marathon of São Paulo, held earlier this month, celebrated another edition with a positive balance. After all, in its 23rd edition, there were about 18,000 entries from all over the country and abroad, with good presence at all distances: 42.1 km, 25 km, 8 km and 4 km (running and walking). At the top of the Elite podium, two Kenyans: Paul Kimutai, the first two-time champion in the history of the event, and Leah Jerotich, who gave a technique show. Brazil secured the vice in the men's, with Edson Amaro Arruda dos Santos, and the fourth place in the women's, with the bicampeã and experienced Marizete Moreira.

In the other categories, a mixture of technique and pleasure. Of course there are amateur runners who seek the best performance to overcome their limits, but the great party is for those who run for pleasure, fun and for an improvement of quality of life. Good presence shows that proof has provided that.

The 23rd São Paulo International Marathon, as happened in the São Paulo Half Marathon, had several dynamics to curb the presence of "popcorn", such as stricter access control, intense communication through social networks, static communication throughout the route, noting that the services are for the properly enrolled hallway.

These actions allowed a considerable reduction of the presence of "popcorn", guaranteeing the quality and structure of the event for the enrolled athletes. This work will be continued significantly in the other Yescom tests.
