The districts of Poblats Marítims and Camins al Grau will host this Sunday, June 7, the Central Lechera Asturiana Women's Race 2026, a sporting event with a charitable component.

The five-kilometer race, organized by Eventos Deportivos de Sport Life Ibérica S.A. in collaboration with the Municipal Sports Foundation, will take place between 9 AM and 10:15 AM.

This edition, now in its 22nd year, aims to promote women's sports participation, unite women around real causes, and demonstrate how sport transforms lives. A portion of the proceeds will go towards continued support for those affected by the dana in the Comunitat Valenciana.
