An INVIGORATING running event is set to challenge athletics enthusiasts in Benalmádena and all for a good cause. The Holiday World’s 5K, 10K and half-marathon race will take place on Sunday November 27, raising vital funds for the Proyecto Hombre charity, supporting people with addiction problems.

Three disciplines will put runners’ abilities to the test from 10am on scenic coastal routes, followed by a packed programme of entertainment including live music and paella.

Organisers, Holiday World Resort are expecting record numbers of registrations in the event’s seventh edition later this month, and are offering participants a special deal of accommodation from November 25-28 along with the registration fee.
