The middle distance race will run through the Gràcia neighborhood of Barcelona, where Parc Güell is located too.

MIDDLE DISTANCE RACE: PARC GÜELL & BARRI DE GRÀCIA

In fact the race runs through the Parc Güell but not on the touristical zone but through the forest located to the north of the monumental part.

The competition center will be located in the Ateneu Lluïsos de Gràcia.

In order to run through the Parc Güell, those circuits corresponding to the shortest distance routes are a little bit longer.

 

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

The distance from the competition center to the Start is 500metres (15 minutes walk). The arrival is located at the competition center (download Sportident, cloakroom, showers).

The maps will not be collected at the end of the race, we ask for fair play on the part of the runners!

COURSE SETTER NOTES

  •  In the Park Güell area there are three hills surrounded by a range of wide paths (many to  stroll around), and other type of minor paths but well delimited. All them will allow you a good progression speed.
  • In the same area, there are open zones with a clean and fast forest, and others that are deep green 3.
  • Since you will be running through part of the Parc Güell, it is very important to preserve the zones indicated as prohibited areas, marked on the map with the symbol 'Fuchsia framed'.
  • The use of spike shoes is not allowed: You will be running in an environment alongside historical and decorative stairs, or rocky areas and strolls, which could get damaged otherwise.
  • The central Parc Güell area is accessible through a toll gate. Runners are not allowed to enter this area.
  • As this is a set of hills, you will find here slopes and also margins to be taken into account during the race.
  • The “Tres Turons” and the Parc Güell surroundings allowed us to design circuits with a significant positive slope, considering that we are running in Barcelona by the sea.
  • There are crosspoints with great views of the city or Park Güell.
  • In the lower part of this area, there are streets open to traffic.
  • The upper part of the Gràcia quarters, is a city area open to traffic. Runners be careful !
    • Here you will find streets with reduced traffic. There is a set of streets with no significant slopes or little slope.
    • There are several squares in this area, with bar terraces marked in the map in fuchsia color.
    • There are some pedestrian only streets.
  • The circuits, have been designed to pass through tourist areas, which means high density of people in certain points. Remember to give way to pedestrians.
  • All circuits, have a forced and neutralized crossing on the main road that separates the two zones of the map.
