Running, art and green activities brought people together in Burgas's Zornitsa district for the "Go green" event, Burgas council said. See our original report: Burgas to hold free run, bike ride and tree planting on October 4.

Children took part in a tree-adoption event, and there was also a graffiti workshop, a stage show and activities for younger kids. A 5km run called "Outrun yourself" was also held.

St Anastasia children's hospital hosted the event. Burgas deputy mayors Vesna Baltina and Manol Todorov took part, along with hospital director Blagomir Zdravkov and doctors from his team. The Burgas regional information centre helped organise the day, with extra support from the official tourism site Go to Burgas.
