For the 21st year, on Saturday November 30th and Sunday December 1st, the “24×1 hour Telethon Relay” will take place in Udine.
A big team will run under MEP's flag this year, too, supporting the important event and its honourable cause.
It is a unique event in Italy, conceived to support scientific research on rare genetic diseases, with the commitment of the Udinese Committee, Udine’s municipal administration, “ASD Universo Giovani” of Manzano and BNL, the main sponsor of the event.
In the past years, the relay has grown more and more, so much that the latest edition counted 552 teams composed by athletes and simple amateurs wearing their running shoes for this occasion. Last year, considering also 1800 students, more than 13,000 runners took part in the relay in the heart of Udine, and 252 thousand € were raised.
