The president of Parc Taulí, Dolors Costa, has expressed her gratitude to the race organizer and the volunteers, wishing "let it be a success of participation as in previous editions". The organizer of the race, Toni Valverde explained that "the proceeds from this year's charity run will go towards the structural improvement of the mental health care spaces for children and young users of the Parc Taulí facilities in order to improve the comfort of patients and the their families".

For her part, Dra.

The general director of Parc Taulí Anna Aran has assured that "these initiatives help raise awareness".

Following this line, the mayor of Sabadell, Marta Farrés, closed the presentation by reminding that "from the administrations we have to focus on health. An incredible commitment towards society and children". That's why he highlighted citizens' initiatives, such as the Solidarity Festival, which strengthen the city and reinforce social policies.

As in previous editions, the day of the call will be a great children's and family party with many activities that will take place in the different spaces of the Parc Taulí, where the start and finish of the race will take place, which can be done running, walking or in a wheelchair.
