Toledo is steeped in sport. The commitment of local and regional institutions to making the city a benchmark for sports has become a reality. Golf was featured at the event held in Parque de la Vega, with the participation of the president of the Spanish Sports Council (CSD), as part of the Women's Universe Tour.

The public's response to the event, which aimed to showcase women's achievements in sports and highlight their role in society, can be described as a resounding success. More than 5,000 people gathered in the park during the two-day outdoor gathering.

Proof of the good health of the Tour Universo Mujer was the presence of the president of the Higher Sports Council, José Manuel Rodríguez Uribe, at the ribbon cutting of the 'Toledo in shape for equality' race, one of the activities included in the sports offer.

The leader's presence represents a boost to a project that has been running for over seven years and has already visited 26 provincial capitals, promoting sport and solidarity. For a few hours, Rodríguez Uribes became just another athlete and participated in several of the activities organized by the participating Federations and Clubs, as well as taking part in the awards ceremony for the winning runners.

Sunday's events kicked off early with the 'Toledo Fit for Equality' charity race, where 250 participants ran through the city streets for a good cause. All proceeds from race bib sales went to APACAMA, an association dedicated to breast cancer prevention. The race attracted 250 participants of all ages and abilities.
