Nobody from the south of Gran Canaria wants to go to the medal or diploma ceremony. It is one of the masterpieces of financial engineering that are made in Las Palmas and, mysteriously, when they are burned in the capital, they appear in the south of the island by the art of some official. It is the GC Marathon that Maspalomas does not even want in pints. The declining race of Las Palmas in the south is the last sporting legacy, at least as far as is known, that the south of the island must assume in 2023.
In Las Palmas they have already handed down a sentence: let him die because he is useless. One of those who denounced the ineffectiveness of the test was the current mayor Marco Aurelio Pérez, because the test costs a fortune. The test has not achieved any promotional results and has hardly any traction among the local population, which is always part of the papier-mâché of this type of imported issues. The Las Palmas thing in Maspalomas is scheduled for November 18 and this 2023 will once again be a real failure. There is a New York marathon on November 5 and another in San Sebastián this same month.
This October the penultimate one has appeared to join the experiment. Manuel Afonso, territorial director of CaixaBank in the Canary Islands, has renewed its sponsorship of the event with a Mini Marathon that is held as a prelude to this sporting event in the south of the island. The observatory of tourism promotion in the south of Gran Canaria remains astonished. It is to "in this way enhance the presence of school-age runners in what is going to be a great celebration of Canarian athletics." There is no longer any tourist impact. As it is in Las Palmas and Maspalomas is not very interesting, registration for this CaixaBank Mini Marathon will have numbers and t-shirts picked up at a store in a shopping center in Las Palmas. At the Expomeloneras you can collect the dynamic elements of the race.
