BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 3. The Baku Marathon has
today become a truly recognizable and significant event, said
Eduard Mammadov, Vice-President of the Azerbaijan Kickboxing
Federation and 30-time world champion, during the "Baku Marathon
2026", Trend

“Every year it brings together more and more people and attracts
the attention of both amateurs and well-known athletes. Such
competitions not only promote sport but also shape a culture of a
healthy lifestyle,” he said.

educating young people.
