Tijuana’s 1, 2, 3 por la Inclusión run is Dec. 5; register now and pick up your number with a new toy

Tijuana’s municipal sports institute, IMDET, has opened registration for the fourth edition of “1, 2, 3 por la Inclusión,” a 3-kilometer run for people with and without disabilities on Saturday, Dec. 5, Zeta reported on Nov. 10. The race starts and finishes in front of the offices of the Delegación Municipal Cerro Colorado, the city borough, and aims to promote inclusion and equal opportunities through sport, according to the report.

There’s a twist at packet pickup: once your registration is validated, you exchange one new toy or stuffed animal for each runner number. Balls, dolls, toy cars, plush toys and sensory toys are all welcome; war-themed toys and toys that use batteries are not, per Zeta.

Race-day schedule

• 6:40 a.m.: runners called to the start
• 7:10 a.m.: warm-up
• 7:20 a.m.: welcome
• 7:25 a.m.: start, Group A
• 7:30 a.m.: start, Group B

How to register

Registration opened Nov. 10, Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., at IMDET’s adaptive sports department in the Unidad Deportiva CREA, at DIF Tijuana and at the city’s Dirección de Atención a la Discapacidad, according to Zeta. Everyone must accept a liability waiver; runners ages 6 to 17 need a copy signed by a parent or guardian, and children under 6 can’t take part. The report didn’t mention an entry fee or a registration deadline, so ask when you sign up.
