Glasses of corn and bags of cloth in the 'ecological Volta a peu a Dénia' more ecological and sustainable
The current edition of the Volta a Peu in Dénia será la más ecológica y sostenible de cuantas se hayan realizado hasta el momento. Desde la Fundación Baleària, su gerente, Ricard Pérez, explicó durante la presentación de este evento deportivo que «hemos planteado hacer una carrera sin plásticos. Los envases donde se entregará el agua al final de la prueba son de cartón y maiz». La organización instalará máquinas expendedoras de agua, donde los participantes podrán beber a través de estos envases cien por cien ecológicos.
Ricard himself commented that «This extends to the runner's bag, which will not be made of plastic but of fabric. Inside it will be a cardboard container with water and the cap it contains must be recycled. Containers for caps will be installed so that they can be deposited there, later a specialized company will be in charge of recycling them.".
The ecological theme was the great novelty that this edition of the Volta a Peu has to Dénia, proof that the next 6 will take place in April, with the start of the 18 queen test: 30 hours. Before the races of the lower categories will be carried out.
The president of the Baleària Diànium Athletics Club, Jordi Jorro, explained that, «They had asked us to approve the test but this represents a large financial outlay. But the athletes must be calm since we have measured the route with a wheel and the 10 kilometers start.". The route is the same as in the previous edition and is well known to the participants.
The trophies, once again, are sponsored by the Dénia Foundation, which has been entrusted to the Aprosdeco students. They are very original trophies made with clay, which this year present some novelties with respect to those of previous editions.
It is expected that athletes participating in the queen competition will be around 1.300, where the categories range from youth to Veterans G, plus 250 that will do so in the lower events, from Barrufets and Prebenjamines, who are not inside the Circuit. , like those of youngest and even cadets who do score.
