By Marwa Nassar - -

A marathon will be organized in Port Said early Saturday under the theme of “Our health lies in our lifestyle.”

The event – which is meant to mark the July Revolution anniversary – is sponsored by the Ministry of Health and organized in collaboration with the Ministry of Youth and Sports and Port Said governorate.

The sports day will start with a marathon for handicapped people, then a bike race will be held.

Other sport activities and contests will be organized on the fringe of the marathon and the bike race.

Under SDG 3 on ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages, Egypt has been working hard to organize sport events in order to spread awareness among people, especially youth, about the importance of adopting healthy lifestyle.

On July 12, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) organized a 1.5 kilometer-marathon in the Egyptian coastal city of Matrouh within the framework of celebrations of the World Population Day.

The event was meant to disseminate awareness among youths about population issues, especially bloating population and family planning.

The event was organized in collaboration with the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation and the Etijah – Youth and Development Consultancy Institute in Egypt.
