Caminar y escribir con prop贸sito. Marat贸n Buenos Aires 2025 // Walking and writing with purpose. Buenos Aires Marathon 2025
Caminar m谩s que correr y escribir con constancia son actividades que disfruto a diario, aunque no siempre lo publique.
El pasado domingo 21 de septiembre, siendo las 10 de la ma帽ana, y en compa帽铆a de mi hija, sal铆 de mi casa rumbo a la l铆nea de meta del marat贸n.
Para esa hora, ya estaban terminando la competencia los corredores m谩s destacados, los que completaron el circuito de 42 kil贸metros en aproximadamente 2 horas y 10 minutos.
A煤n faltaban varias horas para que concluyeran la gran mayor铆a de participantes.
Si su inter茅s est谩 en conocer los datos precisos, en Internet est谩 la p谩gina oficial del Marat贸n Buenos Aires 2025, con informaci贸n detallada del evento, donde se inscribieron m谩s de 18.000 corredores y asisti贸 una multitud de p煤blico dispuesto a motivar y acompa帽ar a los participantes.
El entusiasmo y ambiente festivo se respiraba en el ambiente, abundaban entre el p煤blico asistente numerosas personas con ramos de flores esperando a sus amigos participantes.
Como nosotros que esper谩bamos ver a nuestros amigos a quienes fuimos a apoyar, Zuni y Marcelo, m谩s conocidos como @zutodoterreno y
@palabras1, quienes practican otras disciplinas deportivas, pero este a帽o cumplieron el sue帽o de correr el Marat贸n.
Mientras esper谩bamos verlos acercarse a la meta, disfrutamos de algunas escenas emotivas y pintorescas, como un corredor llevando en brazos un bebe reci茅n nacido o este corredor con remolque, del que ignoramos todo. Quiz谩s no era un competidor, sino alg煤n tipo de auxilio a los participantes.
Poco despu茅s vimos pasar a muestra amiga @zutodoterreno, a quien pueden identificar por su indumentaria roja, portando los colores e insignias de
@hiveargentina y
@actifit, pero ignor谩bamos la ubicaci贸n de
@palabras1, de quien sab铆amos participaba con una lesi贸n y desde el kil贸metro 20 acusaba dolor y hab铆a bajado el ritmo.
Imposible encontrarse con alguien entre la multitud, y para colmo las llamadas y mensajes telef贸nicos estaban colapsados, pero @isauris accedi贸 a la p谩gina oficial y supimos que ambos amigos hab铆an concluido el recorrido con casi media hora de diferencia, y nos dirigimos a la salida de los corredores, tratando de encontrarnos con ellos.
Finalmente, lo logramos gracias a la tecnolog铆a, Isauris y Marcelo compartieron ubicaci贸n y nos encontramos.
Luego de los abrazos y felicitaciones, nos despedimos, pues el fr铆o arreciaba y la indumentaria de la carrera no los proteg铆a, adem谩s del cansancio innegable.
Prometi茅ndonos un pronto encuentro, nos despedimos y los vimos partir en compa帽铆a de su amigo del Cicl贸n de Ezeiza. Nosotros nos pusimos a caminar rumbo a casa, donde nos esperaban para el almuerzo, que disfrutamos con singular apetito, luego de caminar 5 o 6 kil贸metros por las avenidas de Buenos Aires que hab铆an sido cerradas al tr谩nsito automotor y ocupaban los asistentes a esta fiesta del deporte.

Walking and writing with purpose. Buenos Aires Marathon 2025
Walking more than running and writing consistently are activities I enjoy every day, even though I don't always publish them.
Last Sunday, September 21st, at 10:00 a.m., I left home with my daughter and headed to the marathon finish line.
By then, the top runners were already finishing the race, completing the 42-kilometer course in approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes.
There were still several hours left before the vast majority of participants finished.
If you're interested in knowing the precise details, you can find the official Buenos Aires Marathon 2025 website online, with detailed information about the event. More than 18,000 runners registered and a large crowd attended, ready to motivate and support the participants.
The enthusiasm and festive atmosphere permeated the air, with numerous people among the audience holding bouquets of flowers waiting for their participating friends.
Like us, we were hoping to see our friends we went to support, Zuni and Marcelo, better known as @zutodoterreno and
@palabras1, who practice other sports, but this year fulfilled their dream of running the Marathon.
While we waited to see them approaching the finish line, we enjoyed some emotional and picturesque scenes, such as a runner carrying a newborn baby or this runner with a trailer, about whom we knew nothing. Perhaps he wasn't a competitor, but some kind of aid to the participants.
Shortly after, we saw our friend @zutodoterreno pass by, who you can identify by her red outfit, wearing the colors and insignia of
@hiveargentina and
@actifit. However, we didn't know where
@palabras1 was, who we knew was participating with an injury and had been experiencing pain and slowed down since kilometer 20.
It was impossible to find anyone in the crowd, and to top it all off, phone calls and texts were jammed, but @isauris accessed the official website and learned that both friends had finished the race almost half an hour apart. We headed to the race start, trying to meet them.
Finally, thanks to technology, Isauris and Marcelo shared a location, and we met up.
After hugs and congratulations, we said our goodbyes, as the cold was getting worse and their race gear wasn't protecting them, in addition to the undeniable fatigue.
Promising to meet again soon, we said our goodbyes and watched them leave in the company of their friend from Cicl贸n de Ezeiza. We started walking home, where they were waiting for us for lunch, which we enjoyed with singular appetite, after walking 5 or 6 kilometers along the avenues of Buenos Aires, which had been closed to traffic and were occupied by attendees of this sports festival.
