The Beirut Marathon Association organized on Sunday the Saradar Bank Women’s Race at Beirut Seaside Arena under the message, “Draw Your Path” in the presence of NCLW president, Claudine Aoun Rukuz, and a crowd of dignitaries. The goal, according to race organizers, is to empower women through the simple sport of running and to turn the event into a platform to advocate their issues. Around 4350 men and women participated in the marathon, which is considered the highest rate since the launch of the event back in 2013. (Al Mustaqbal, An Nahar, Al Diyar, April 23, 2018)
