The Azkoitia-Azpeitia half marathon (Diego García memorial) is one of the most important sport events in the province of Gipuzkoa. It is an open race, as the only condition to take part in it is to be over 14 years old (no matter what sex or nationality participants are, or whether they are federated or not).
Each year, more than 1,000 runners take part in the half marathon, although we have to stand out the number of people in the streets cheering and supporting the athletes. Moreover, during the race there will be several provision points, so that runners can get their strength back.

"It's the unique mix of top and popular sports that draws runners to Paderborn on the Easter weekend each year," says Mathias Vetter, club manager of SC Grün-Weiß.Here professionals meet amateurs, here children, families, clubs and companies run side by side.Whether at the end-track sprint half marathon, at the E.ON 10km run, at the 5km Fit and Fun run, at the 5km MBörso-Computer Nordic Walking or at the two Bambini runs of Sparkasse Paderborn-Detmold.The motivation of the runners at the start is as different as they are: some run for best times, for personal records, for victory.Others are for fun, health, tradition or charity.
