EDP Women's Race took place on the past 22nd and 23rd of May and, for the first time, in virtual format.

In total, it counted with the participation of more than 4500 people and with the presence of several families from all over the world, who, running or walking, were virtually together for this cause.

This race aims to remind everyone about the importance of breast cancer screening and, at the same time, to honor women and promote physical exercise in the entire population.

IPO-Porto will receive € 1 for each registration

Preventing and helping in solidarity were the central ideas of this event, so, as is already traditional, part of the registration fee will be donated to IPO-Porto, for its fight against breast cancer. This year, EDP Women's Race raised € 4575 for this solidary cause.

Participants from all over the world dressed in pink
