Not bad for a first edition…
280 runners signed up straight out the gate…😜
The Basics
🗓 May 2
📍 Puertito de Güímar
🏁 Start & finish: Plaza de las Indias
A simple 5K route, two laps… built for pace and spectators.
What Stands Out
- Over 40% female participation
- Around 100 runners aiming for sub-25 minutes
So it won’t just be a jog round the block… it should move.
Start Times
🕕 18:00 → Sub-25 race (the quick ones)
🕕 18:15 → General start
Keeps things a bit cleaner… and more competitive up front.
The Setup
Organised by Club Alisios Triathlon, with support from the local council, police, and Civil Protection.
Which usually means it’ll be run properly.
Worth Knowing
These smaller races are often the ones that stick…
Good atmosphere, manageable size, and no chaos.
If this one lands well, it’ll probably be back next year.
And likely bigger.
