Tips & Advice
- Register online by December 28, 2026, because that is the listed closing date for entries.
- Check your age group's start time: children's races run from 4:00 to 4:45 p.m., before the main events at 5:00 p.m.
- Choose the 7.5-kilometer main race or Andaina if you prefer walking; both are listed for the 5:00 p.m. start.
- Bring poles if joining the Nordic Walking category, which is scheduled alongside the main race at 5:00 p.m.
- Register in CanSilvestre if you plan to run with your dog, rather than entering the general running category.
