The Runner's Fair for the 38th Nocturna del Guadalquivir KH7 distributes thousands of bib numbers in Torre Sevilla. The event, on September 25 at 21:00, reaches a record of 26,000 runners.
The 38th Nocturna del Guadalquivir KH7 is all set for its celebration. The Runner's Fair, located in the Torre Sevilla Shopping Centre, is handing out bib numbers and race bags to the thousands of participants who have registered. The Sports Delegate, María Tena, visited the facilities this Thursday to check on the progress of the distribution.
The event will take place on Friday, September 25 at 21:00 hours. For the first time, the starting line will feature 26,000 runners, after the Seville City Council, the event organiser, increased participation by 1,000 additional bib numbers after the initial 25,000 sold out nearly 20 days before the event.
The organisation highlights the record female participation: over 10,600 women registered, representing 40% of the total. The Sports Delegate emphasised the historic nature of this edition.
"We are witnessing a historic edition of the Nocturna KH7, with an absolute record of participation with 26,000 runners and a record female participation with over 10,600 women registered, which accounts for 40% of the participation"
Tena also recalled the appeal of the night race, "the most important in Europe on a spectacular circuit that runs through one of the most beautiful cities in the world," and encouraged everyone to enjoy "the orange tide of the Nocturna KH7 as it sweeps through Seville."
The Runner's Fair will remain open until Friday, September 25 at 21:00 hours. The organisation recommends that those who have not yet picked up their bib do so in good time to arrive without rush at the starting area and enjoy the pre-race atmosphere.
For the residents of Seville, the event will mean traffic disruptions along the usual route, which runs through the city centre. A large crowd is expected on the streets to watch the runners pass by.
