Registration extended for 28th Marios Agathangelou International Road Race
The Municipality of Limassol has announced an extension of the registration period for the 28th Marios Agathangelou International Road Race until Tuesday, October 6. The decision follows high public interest in the event, which marks the beginning of the annual Lemesia sports festival, scheduled to take place on Sunday, October 11.
This historical race, nearing its third decade of existence, is held in memory of athlete and educator Marios Agathangelou. The competition aims to promote sportsmanship and physical activity among participants of all ages and fitness levels. Organizers have emphasized that this year's event holds a significant social dimension, as proceeds from the race will support the Panos Evripidou Foundation, an organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for premature infants and their families.
Participants are encouraged to sign up before the new deadline to contribute to both the sporting tradition and the charitable cause. The race remains a staple of the local sporting calendar, combining long-standing community traditions with modern social responsibility efforts.
