Kazan Marathon: sports, unity, and safety
This year, the Kazan Marathon goes beyond a regular sporting event, becoming an important platform for anti-terrorism education and fostering a culture of safety among the youth of Tatarstan. The organizers emphasize systematic work with the younger generation. According to representatives of the Anti-Terrorism Commission of the Republic of Tatarstan, integrating educational themes into large-scale sporting events is an effective way to instill a strong rejection of destructive behavior among young people. "Sport is strength, discipline, and unity. Integrating educational content into an event of such scale as the Kazan Marathon allows us to reach the widest audience. Such initiatives strengthen public consciousness and create a solid culture of safety among the youth audience," noted Ildus Garaev, head of the Anti-Terrorism Commission in Tatarstan, who also traditionally participates in the race. In 2026, the marathon will become a venue for broadcasting socially significant messages. As part of the event, the interactive zone of the Academy of Creative Youth of Tatarstan will continue its work. Here, young volunteers will share practical examples with participants about methods to counter destructive ideologies, prevention of involvement in illegal activities, and personal safety rules. Special attention is given to informing participants. Special booklets titled "Finish Without Losses" will be included in the starter packs for the 3 km and 10 km races. These booklets contain information about modern types of fraud and how not to become a victim or accomplice to a crime. The print run of the booklets is over 20,000 copies. During the marathon, a video titled "We Are Against Terrorism" will be broadcast on the media facade of the "Tatmedia" building on Dekabristov Street. Its main goal is to form a strong negative attitude towards extremism and terrorism among the younger generation.
The Kazan Marathon will take place from May 1 to May 3, 2026. Detailed information about the route and program is available on the official website of the organizers. The location will be situated in the fan zone, with free entry for participants and guests of the marathon. Photo: © Vladimir Vasiliev / "Tatar-inform" Based on materials from Tatar-inform.ru
