BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 3. The wind gives the
Baku Marathon a special character, said Azamat Kozuev, a marathon
participant from Kyrgyzstan, Trend reports.
“I have taken part in around forty marathons, but this is my
first time competing in Baku, and of course I hope for a good
result.
As for the city and the people, the impressions are excellent.
There is a very warm atmosphere here, a sense of cultural
closeness, people understand us well, and that creates additional
comfort. We are brotherly Turkic peoples and should support each
other,” he noted.
According to Kozuev, when it comes to the course itself, special
attention should be paid to the wind – the Baku wind gives the
marathon a unique character.
“But this is also part of the experience and an interesting
challenge for every participant,” the Kyrgyzstani participant
added.
