Race to boost Basque language will pay tribute to female speakers

The popular race Korrika, organised by Basque language school net for adults 
AEK once every two years, will celebrate its 15th edition in 2007. Its main aim 
is to boost the language, but this edition will pay tribute to female speakers 
for their job protecting and passing on language and culture. Under the 
slogan "Heldu," the race will kick off on March 22 at the Carranza Valley, 
northwestern Basque Country, and finish in Pamplona/Iruña on April 1.
