The public sports organization Sporter has launched the "Sporter 65+" program to promote sports and a healthy lifestyle. Its goal is to show that sports know no age limits.

The initiative is designed for individuals who maintain an active interest in sports, take on new challenges, and inspire others through their own example.

As part of the "Sporter 65+" program, participants can secure a free spot at Sporter events, subject to slot availability and compliance with the terms established for each competition.

The program now extends to the Chisinau International Marathon, set to take place on September 13, 2026.

Through "Sporter 65+", the organizers aim to make sports events more accessible to older adults and support their desire to remain an active part of the athletic community.

Who is eligible for the program

Free participation is open to citizens of the Republic of Moldova who are 65 years of age or older on the day of the event and meet all standard regulation requirements.

Applications under the "Sporter 65+" program can be submitted from the launch of registration for the selected event up to ten days prior to race day. If all event slots are filled earlier, application processing will close ahead of schedule.
