What is B/SS 50/50/25?
An equal Behobia - San Sebastián in 2025
It is an implementation of strategies based around equality, with a challenge for the 2025th edition: That the Behobia - San Sebastián be an equal race.
The C.D Fortuna, organizer of the Behobia - San Sebastian has proposed a challenge that goes beyond just the number itself, since the intention is to carry out actions in favour of the social change required for the objective to become a reality.
Why are we doing it?
Because other major races in the world have achieved it.
Because in the Behobia txiki kids race 46% of the participants are girls while in the adult Behobia is just 30%.
There are no physical or legal barriers preventing women's participation. There are, however, some cultural and social factors that feed on gender stereotypes and discriminate women in sports.
Through this initiative, we want to understand this, learn, reflect, and help transform it.
What are we doing?
- Internal analysis: Seeing what we can change, how we communicate, to make the Behobia-San Sebastián Race an inclusive event for all. Examples:
- Revision of photographs website images of the race, magazine, social media
- Change terminology: change "Runner's bag", "Runner's Fair" for "THE RACE... Bag, Fair"
- Early start for elite women to raise the visibility of women in the media.
- Studies: Collaboration and studies with experts to diagnose the current situation and detect best practices in the fostering of sport among women.
- Training groups: Fostering physical activity through a training group open to all levels. See Biziki.
