The Great Challenge of Nicosia!
"The Friendliest Marathon in the World."
This is not measured by financial expenditure but by human affection, not by
proclamations but by attitudes, not by individual units but by the coordinated
whole.
The hosts of the Nicosia Marathon are not just the organisers but the entire city
and its people.
It is an extremely demanding challenge to be recognized as the most hospitable
city, the most welcoming people, the most enjoyable experience, and the most
enthusiastic event in the world!
As the capital, Nicosia therefore takes on the responsibility of being the
ambassador of perhaps Cyprus’ most enduring value : hospitality.
A city that embraces values starting from a sporting event and spreading to all
aspects of human behaviour. A city that, from the very first moment, wants you
to be its FRIEND, sees you as a WINNER, and will do everything to make each
individual feel SPECIAL!
Nicosia, the city of cities, invites you to the most important sporting, social, and
cultural event ever held in its arteries. From the moment you say "Yes!" to your
dreams and your strengths, and "Yes!" to friendship, you're hers for life!
