Running to Friendship

Friendship Without Borders Half Marathon, where the Turkish-Greek border is crossed by running, will be held on 4 June. The race starts and finishes in front of the Selimiye Mosque in Edirne.

The race offers the participants a unique experience, that is crossing the borders by running and without a passport. The runners leave Turkey through Pazarkule Border Gate, and make a turn from Kastanies in Greece, heading back to Edirne where the race starts.
