Barrier-Free Running: Nova Post & NewRun Launch the 2025 Marathon Series
The 2025 Nova Post x NewRun running series is more than just a race calendar — it’s a nationwide movement for inclusivity. This year’s events highlight the importance of physical, emotional, and social accessibility, ensuring that everyone — regardless of background or ability — can step up to the starting line.
Organizers are committed to making each race space barrier-free, from the starting area to the finish line. Whether you’re an experienced athlete or just beginning your running journey, the path is open to you.
A Run for Everyone
This year’s format is designed with flexibility in mind: runners can choose from 21 km, 10 km, 5 km, or a 1 km Support Run — a symbolic distance that will be joined by patients from the UNBROKEN Rehabilitation Center. The message is clear: running can empower, connect, and heal.
Public figures and professional athletes alike will take part — including Yevhen Klopotenko, Mariia Pankiv, Vlad Khilchenko, and many more.
„We’ve built a running format that includes everyone — from the ambitious half-marathoner to someone taking their very first steps. This is about strength, inclusion, and solidarity,”
— says Oksana Suchenko, Director at NewRun.
Running to Support the UNBROKEN
100% of entry fees will be donated to support the UNBROKEN Center, a facility providing full-cycle rehabilitation: from emergency care and prosthetics to psychological recovery.
Since the start of the full-scale war, over 19,000 Ukrainians — including 350 children — have received treatment at the center.
“UNBROKEN is about rebuilding lives. I’ve seen the dedication of their team and the needs they still face. This fundraising campaign helps ensure every patient can take their next step with confidence,”
— says Inna Popereshniuk, co-founder of Nova Post and NewRun ambassador.
The goal: raise UAH 7 million for equipment, prosthetics, and recovery support.
