KNOW OUR HISTORY
21k La Ceiba was born in 2019 under the name of half marathon "PONIÉNDOLE 21k '', as an internal initiative of the company STANDARD FRUIT DE HONDURAS, with the aim of promoting healthy lifestyles among employees.
Due to the success of the half marathon, in 2020 it was opened to the public with the objective of supporting the economic development of the city of La Ceiba and at the same time supporting 3 NGO'S that have great impact in the area, these were The CRILA, Emilia D'cuire School and Pro-cancer Foundation.
For the year 2021 the need to adapt and innovate arose due to the pandemic and the race was held in the virtual edition under the restrictions of holding large-scale events in the city.
Between 2020 and 2021, $19,800 was raised for local NGOs thanks to the participation of more than 1,700 people.
For the year 2022, the 5th edition will be held in which a total of 1,200 athletes are expected to travel from all over the country, in the modalities of 5k, 10km and 21km.
