Could You Run a Marathon?

Torrevieja town hall has issued notice of a tender which is open for the management of the half marathon sporting race in the town.

The councillor for Sports, Víctor Ferrández, stated that after spending the last two years preparing the requirements for the tender, in order to satisfy the necessary legal requirements, prospective bidders have until 5 June to submit their tender, with the documents and full information available on the town hall website, torrevieja.es.

However, it won´t be an easy race for the bidders to win, as the requirements are now stricter than ever for the company who will be awarded the almost 300,000 euro contract, as they will also have to provide four ambulances, two of them for patient transfer and two of providing life support, which is double the previous requirement, as well as the installation of a small field hospital with a doctor and medical support staff, in addition to the one physiotherapist required in the previous tender.
