R U N N I NRunning races in Spain: marathons, trails and more
39 upcoming running races across Spain, sorted by date and updated weekly - home of Valencia, the fastest marathon city in southern Europe, and winter racing while the rest of the continent hibernates.
Valencia and the fast courses
Valencia has built itself into a temple of fast running: a flat course, December conditions and a finish over the water in the City of Arts and Sciences. Madrid, Barcelona and Sevilla fill out a calendar of big-city marathons with Mediterranean crowds.
Winter is the season
Spain races when northern Europe cannot: the biggest events run October through March, making Spain the classic winter marathon destination. Summer racing moves to the cooler north coast and the mountains - or to dawn starts.
