SOS electronic is a Proud Partner of Košice Peace Marathon

The oldest marathon in Europe and the second oldest in the world. More than 17,000 runners and 80,000 fans will gather for the Košice Peace Marathon. SOS electronic is pleased to announce that it has become a partner of this significant sport event, which will celebrate its 100th anniversary this fall.

The Košice Peace Marathon is traditionally one of the highlights of the running season in Europe. Last year, more than 17,000 runners participated in this event. "In 2023, we listed record participation at our marathon. We are very pleased that the Košice Peace Marathon is gaining more recognition among runners worldwide. Our international ranking also helps us in this regard. Our marathon ranked 13th among EU marathons and 21st overall in the world. All the higher-ranked events are in cities with over two million inhabitants, which is a great honor for us as a city with less than 250,000 residents," said Branislav Koniar, director of the Košice Peace Marathon, evaluating its success.

"The partnership with the Košice Marathon is a natural continuation and expansion of our support for sports in the region. We are truly delighted to be part of this running festival, which is celebrating its anniversary," explains Ján Seszták, CEO of SOS electronic.

Community support and promotion of a healthy lifestyle

SOS electronic has long been committed to promoting a healthy lifestyle among its employees and supporting them in their sports activities. "We create conditions for our employees to live healthier lives. Each year, we introduce initiatives that teach them how to adjust their eating habits. Additionally, we offer more opportunities for physical activity through multisport cards and other individual events. All of this is to support fitness centers and sports facilities, particularly in our region," Ján Seszták, CEO of SOS electronic, outlines the philosophy of community development and active lifestyle support.

The Košice Peace Marathon and SOS electronic share this vision. The marathon club supports sports in the region year-round and organizes several running events. It also consistently motivates female runners, providing summer training sessions to prepare them for the marathon, thereby increasing female participation in the 42.195 km distance, a discipline where men globally dominate.

Košice marathon's growing popularity worldwide

The demographic composition of runners at the marathon is diverse, with more and more international athletes discovering the Košice Peace Marathon. This is due to its flat terrain and favorable fall weather conditions for runners.

Once a year, the entire metropolis of eastern Slovakia comes alive with the Košice Peace Marathon. Thanks to its rich history, the event has a large number of fans and supporters in and around the city, creating a unique atmosphere for the race. In 2023, approximately 80,000 people lined the course to cheer on the marathoners. The marathon thus has a significant impact on the community. SOS electronic is grateful to be a part of it.
