The traditional San Silvestre race is celebrated this Sunday in Benidorm

Every year, on the eve of Christmas, Benidorm celebrates the traditional San Silvestre race, which will take place this Sunday, December 18. The Councilor for Sports, Mariló Cebreros, has pointed out that "it is, almost probably, the most fun event on the annual calendar, since many runners decide to compete in costumes, thus providing a colorful and joyful touch to this 5-kilometer race".

As in previous years, San Silvestre Christmas Run Benidorm 2022 is organized by the Brotons Group, with the collaboration of the Department of Sports, the Athletics Club, Coca-Cola, and Cadena Ser; and will depart at 10:00 am from the confluence of Avenida Europa with Paseo de Levante.

Also as in previous editions, "each person will be able to cover the distance of 5 kilometers running, walking or practicing 'Nordic walking', as they prefer, since San Silvestre race will take place in these three modalities".

In addition, San Silvestre Christmas Race Benidorm 2022 will have a solidarity character since a collection of food and hygiene products is planned.

The Councilor for Sports reported that "children's runners will have their own races, which will begin at 11:00 a.m." and that "they will be free to register for all Benidorm schoolchildren."

Those interested in participating can register at www.grupobrotons.com. The registration fee is 8.60 euros.
