According to the organizers, professionally organized grassroots running events have been bustling for the past 10 years. Selling participation fees (BiB) not only helps the organizers cover the costs of taking better care of athletes, but also has a humanitarian element as each BiB is a practical act of the participants contributing to raising funds for eye surgery for the poor.
