About this festival

‘달려라부산’은 부산광역시가 운영하는 부산 대표 러닝 브랜드로, 시민 누구나 일상 속에서 러닝을 쉽고 즐겁게 경험할 수 있도록 다양한 러닝 콘텐츠를 선보이고 있다. ‘달려라부산 러닝페스티벌’은 러닝을 매개로 시민들이 함께 소통하고 즐기는 참여형 스포츠 축제로, 오는 11월 14일(토) 부산의 아름다운 바다와 도심 풍경이 어우러진 북항친수공원에서 개최된다. 이번 페스티벌은 부산의 아름다운 노을을 배경으로 함께 달리는 ‘선셋런(5km)’을 비롯해 러닝크루들의 팀워크와 열정을 겨루는 ‘러닝크루 랭킹전’, 시민 누구나 자신의 체력을 확인하고 다양한 운동에 도전할 수 있는 ‘도전! 시민체력장’ 등 다채로운 참여형 프로그램으로 꾸며진다. 특히 마라톤과 기록 경쟁 중심의 획일적인 러닝 행사에서 벗어나, 러닝 입문자부터 숙련된 러너까지 누구나 자신의 속도와 방식으로 달리기의 즐거움을 경험할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 러닝 축제로 기획됐다. 단순히 달리는 것을 넘어 가족, 친구, 연인이 함께 즐길 수 있는 다양한 체험 프로그램과 러닝크루 간 교류의 장을 마련해 건강한 생활체육 문화를 확산하고, 시민들이 함께 달리는 즐거움을 나눌 수 있도록 할 예정이다. 이와 함께 러닝 토크쇼, 러닝 패션왕 선발대회, 축하공연, 레크리에이션, 경품추첨 등 풍성한 즐길거리를 마련해 러닝 참가자뿐만 아니라, 일반 시민들도 함께 어울릴 수 있는 축제의 장을 조성한다. ‘함께 뛰는 즐거움, 부산을 달리자!’라는 슬로건 아래 러닝과 생활체육, 문화, 놀이가 어우러지는 부산 대표 참여형 러닝 축제로 펼쳐질 예정이다.
