Healthy Escapism

Who doesn’t need a break after an exhausted week?

Of course all of us need to escape from work or college and take a deep breath. Some Egyptian youth made a different and also a healthy way of escapism which is (Sports Events). Those events are organized by sports' teams. Those events take place every Friday at the morning, people know information about the event through social media. People know the starting and ending point of the event through Facebook page.

If you see many people gathered in the street, they’re of course participating in one of these events. One of the most famous sport teams is Cairo Runners, they organize half marathons and runs. They give prizes to the winners. They also write tips for diet to encourage people to have healthy bodies. Those who succeed in losing weight, their before and after pictures are published on the Facebook page with their names to motivate them and the others.

Another example of these sport teams is Go Bike. It organizes cycling events. People who owe bikes go to the location of the event directly and those who don’t have ones must buy a ticket to use one of the bikes which the team provides. Those sports teams are sponsored by huge and famous companies. Sometimes they donate with the money they receive to a specific charitable organization.

There are many Fridays to come, join them and have a break.
