Istanbul Marathon.This is allowed only once a year,60000 people said yes to run/walk on this bridge

Описание: INTERCONTINENTAL MARATHON!
The 44th Istanbul Marathon (aka Avrasya, Eurasian marathon) took place on November 6th, 2022. This is the only marathon that starts in one continent and ends in another one. More than 60000 people from Istanbul, Turkey and all around the world joined for this unique experience.

Seasoned athletes and professionals, raced with each other and themselves for the 42K and 15K sessions. It was also possible for the general public to attend the 8K walk/run.
Pedestrians are not allowed in this bridge of Istanbul so it is very special occasion for people to be on the bridge. Authorities did not appreciate people to stop for photos but it was very tempting. We have spotted many fund raisers, people having a family stroll and even those that are having breakfast.

This is one of those events that you should put on your bucket list, in this beautiful town.
