They cancelled the marathon. But they cannot stop the movement.
Every year, the Palestine Marathon in Bethlehem highlights the denial of the basic Palestinian right to freedom of movement. With the marathon postponed/cancelled yet again this year, it is absolutely vital that we step up and mark the day from exactly where we are.
You are invited to join our local Run The Wall gathering (an Amos Trust initiative) to run, walk, or cycle 5K in unyielding solidarity.
Here is everything you need to know:
Date: Saturday, 18th April
Location: Alexandra Park, Whalley Range, M16
Meeting Point: Between the cafe and the lake
Time: Meet at 10:00 a.m. | Setting off at 10:15 a.m. sharp
Special Guests: The BigRide will be starting their solidarity cycle with us!
How to join: Just show up! There is no fee to participate. However, registering for free via Amos Trust is highly encouraged, as it helps them map the power of our global numbers and track locations worldwide.
