On Sunday, 28th September, SmartCity Malta is hosting the third edition of the 8km Road Race, organised by St Patrick’s Athletic Club for another consecutive year.  

The race will start from Laguna Walk at SmartCity Malta at 8:30am, where runners will then proceed to Bighi Bay and then onto Triq il-Missjoni Taljana. From Kalkara, athletes will head to Xghajra through the track around the Kalkara Naval Cemetry. Athletes will then descend to Xghajra Promenade and return to Laguna Walk at SmartCity Malta.

An 8km walkathon and a 2km junior race will also be held on the day, making it a fun-filled event for the entire family.

Commenting on SmartCity Malta’s support for the race, CEO of SmartCity Malta, Anthony P. Tabone said: “We are proud to associate ourselves with this race for the third consecutive year, especially after the success of the two previous events.”

“Such initiatives, such as SmartCity Malta’s support for St Patrick’s Athletic Club, reflect the commitment of the project to promote a healthy work-life balance which falls in line with the work-play-live business township being designed here.”

Trophies, sponsored by SmartCity Malta, will be awarded to the first three male and female finishers. All participants will receive a commemorative medal and other promotional give-aways from Nestlé, Gatorade, Twistees and Raysun.

Application forms may be downloaded from the website of St Patrick Athletic Club,  www.stpatricksac.com. Participants can also apply online on the club’s website where official results will be posted 24 hours after the race.
