Magali Rondon, Director Commercial and partner at CFlex, has been running for 10 years.
Have a look at some of the marathons in which she has taken part:
2007 New York City Marathon
Athletes from all over the world, together with 2 million spectators and approximately 315 million television viewers look forward each year to the arrival of autumn in New York City, in order to check out the participants of the New York City Marathon. The race was first run in 1970 through the initiative of Fred Lebow, a Rumanian who used to run and live in the USA.
The race gets underway every year on the first Sunday in November (in 2007, it took place on November 4th), at 10.47 a.m. The current route begins in Staten Island, just before the Verrazano bridge, which takes the runners as far as Brooklyn. From there they proceed to the Queensborough bridge, crossing the borough of Queens. After crossing the bridge, now in Manhattan, the competitors turn to the right and head off to the Bronx, where they perform a one-eighty turn and come back alongside Central Park. The finish line is located at the south side of the park, next to 67th Street.
2010 Paris Marathon
The Paris Marathon begins at the Champs Elysées, which gives the race all the more charm. It is a race run through the streets of the city of Paris in France.
The first race took place on July 19th, 1896, soon after the Summer Olympic Games. Since 1976, the 42.195 km (26.219 miles) has been run every year except for 1991 when the competition race was canceled owing to the Gulf War.
At the present time, Magali is training for the 38th BMW BERLIN MARATHON 2011, which will be held this year on September 25th, in Berlin.
Well done Magali!
