The Kalisz people ran in La Louviere

The participation of Kalisz runners in the June race in La Louviere (Belgium) has almost 20 years of tradition. Under the leadership of Piotr Maciejewski, a KTS Supermaraton player, club representatives visit this place to maintain contacts with the still active Polish community.

This year, Kalisz was represented by Piotr Maciejewski, Weronika Wodiczko and Rafał Pokora. The runners met with great hospitality, both from the city authorities, who greeted the friendly city of Kalisz from Poland at every opportunity, as well as runners who at the sight of the flag on the shirt called - "Alle, Pologne, Kalish". Also representatives of the Polish diaspora willingly spent time with guests from Kalisz. Annual runs at partner La Louviere take place over 6, 11 and 21.1 km.
