The United States, with 274 runners, leads the foreign delegations registered to date in <\/span>Marabana<\/span><\/a>, the Cuban capital\u2019s marathon that will hold its 33rd edition on November 10.<\/span><\/p>\n

With this figure, which can still grow because registrations will remain open until shortly before the event, the American delegation almost equals the number <\/span>for 2018<\/span><\/a>, when 278 U.S. runners competed. This, despite the new sanctions and travel restrictions established by the Trump administration against the island.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the United States comes Mexico with 136 representatives; France with 45 athletes, Colombia with 42, and Spain and Puerto Rico with 28 each, according to the general director of Marabana, Carlos Gattorno.<\/span><\/p>\n

So far a total of 902 foreigners from 59 nations have confirmed their participation, 300 more than those registered until the same date the previous year, said Gattorno, cited by the Cuban News Agency (ACN)<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n
