English: In November 2010, Maxime Chaya lead a team of 7 ambassadors (Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Korea, Romania, Spain and UK) to raise funds for the nine Beirut Marathon partner charities. After rigorous training sessions headed by Max, each ambassador ran one leg of the relay (10km, 7km or 5km) while Max ran the complete marathon, alongside his fellow ambassadors, supporting them along the way. On this first year that the Beirut Marathon introduces the notion of 'running for a cause' Maxime was able to raise $57,033 which he distributed equally among the nine NGOs. Organizer of the marathon: May El-Khalil (5.f.r.)
