The Mayor of Murcia, José Ballesta, the Councilor for Sports and Health, Felipe Coello, the Communication Manager of the Ponle Freno Circuit, Natalia Rico, the General Coordinator of the Ponle Freno Studies Center - AXA, Iñaki Lerga, and the President of the Marcelino Oliver Foundation, Nino Oliver, presented today the Ponle Freno Murcia solidarity race.

This is the third edition of the Ponle Freno Murcia solidarity race, which will take place next Sunday, May 5, starting at 10.00 am, with start and finish at the Plaza de la Cruz Roja.

The race will have two routes of 5 and 10 kilometers, in addition to the novelty of children's races

The test driven by Atresmedia, in collaboration with the City of Murcia, is the second stop of the Racing Circuit PONLE BRAKE, after passing through Badalona.

The AXA Foundation collaborates as the main sponsor and CGA as the official sponsor.

The entire collection of this popular race will go to the project 'The little Murcians with road safety', Marcelino Oliver Foundation and will be used to buy a series of bicycles and road safety accessories that can be given talks on road safety education in the schools of the Region of Murcia, with the aim of raising awareness among the youngest children about the importance of road safety.

The sessions are based on the experience of an accident and how alcohol and drugs have serious effects on the driving of a vehicle.

This Foundation dedicated to road safety and women's cycling was born as a result of the outrage of Marcelino Oliver, father of the current president of the entity, while riding a bicycle.

"After seeing everything that was behind a traffic accident, we say create the foundation to help families both legally and psychologically," says Nico Oliver.

José Ballesta stressed that "the prevention of traffic accidents should unite us all and this drive is a clear example of joint struggle between public administration, private enterprise, and civil society."

They can also be done in person on Friday and Saturday at the Atalayas Shopping Center, where the collection of numbers will also take place.

Two itineraries of 5 and 10 kilometers and children's race

'La PONLE BRAO' of Murcia will have exit and goal in the Plaza de la Cruz Roja.

It will start at 10:00 in the morning and will cross the area of ​​the Segura river bank with a flat altimetry that will allow all runners to beat their best brands.

PONLE FRENO will also have a children's racing program, which will be free of charge and will be carried out once the 5 and 10 km races have finished (these at a registration fee of 5 euros).

All participants of this modality will receive a medal.

The appointment will have the participation of Antena 3 Noticias sports presenter, Manu Sánchez -embassador of the initiative with the athlete Martín Fiz-, and will be in charge of giving the starting signal.

The collection of numbers may be made at the Atalayas Shopping Center (Calle de Molina de Segura, 10, 30007 Murcia) at the following dates and times:

at 8:00 p.m.

at 8:00 p.m.

Along with the numbers, will be delivered a shirt with the orange color characteristic of the appointments of PONLE BRAKE and in which the #huellaponlefreno and citizen participation have an important presence.

The shirt of this edition thus influences the path left by the PONLE BRAZO footprint, that mark that continues after crossing the finish line through the collection of the races, which is intended, from the beginning and in its entirety, for projects in support to victims of traffic accidents, a clear example that reflects the philosophy with which the ATRESMEDIA initiative was born of crossing screens and waves to create a direct impact on society.

An objective that would be impossible without citizen participation: from the 7,000 runners with whom the first popular race in Madrid began to the nearly 180,000 participants that has added PONLE BRAKE in all its editions during its first decade of travel.

From carrerasponlefreno.com it will be possible to carry out the inscriptions of each city and also obtain the procedure so that the entities can present projects that can be beneficiaries of the concession of the collection obtained.

PONLE FRENO will continue to be very present in social networks, both from Facebook and Instagram (carreraponlefreno) and on Twitter (@carrerasPF).
