Rosarito, BC – Due to the difficult economic situation experienced by the municipal government, the Rosarito Municipal Institute of Sport (Imder) reported that its traditional Rosarito-Puerto Nuevo half-marathon has been canceled and is postponed until a possible date in October.
Imder spokesperson Ignacio Martinez Ortigoza said: "We were deferred by the situation at Town Hall, however, is not time to completely cancel the event". Imder tried to clear the race corridors, purchase t-shirts and medals, to assure visitors and entrepreneurs.
"We will postpone the date until next month. This is an event that we are not going to stop having," he stated. 1,800 participants are expected.
Ortigoza Martinez added, "This event is one of the most beautiful in the whole nation and people ask, why we want to continue. I would like people to support us. We are not asking for money. We ask no more than the cost of the t-shirts and medals, to be able to move forward". He said an estimated 150,000 pesos ($11,681 US), which includes the awards and medals, is required.
"Have not had the response we wanted but we believe that if we deferred we could obtain the sponsors," he said in the interview.
