Athletes of all ages, children and adults, filled the streets of Cartagena on Sunday October 27 to participate in the XVIII Cross of the Artillery, with a great atmosphere that managed to congregate more than 3,500 runners among all its categories.
The personnel of the Regiment of Artillery Antiaircraft nº 73 prepared in the port of Cartagena the assembly tasks of all the necessary infrastructure with the collaboration of the Department of Sports of the City Council that allowed the correct development of the tests with exit in this point with more than 200 troops, both military and medical equipment, local police, Civil Protection, Civil Guard and members of the association Prolam-Astus.
The quarter mile test for children up to 9 years was the first to start, in two batches differentiated by age, in which all participants received a medal after crossing the finish line.
These were followed by young people between 10 and 14 who traveled a Mile (1609 m) in which Álvaro Fernández - Nespral Sáez and Eva María Sánchez Castro were victors, in second place Raúl Armero Luque and Jimena Hernández Corbalán and in third position Javier García Chumilla and Lidia Martínez Losa entered.
As in past editions, four teams from the Joëlette chair took the exit with which it is achieved that people with reduced mobility can face any type of test in different terrains, giving visibility to the solidarity project 'Stride on wheels' in favor of the association ASTUS.
