Trotada Popular de Valladolid

The Trotada Popular de Valladolid is a popular road running race in Valladolid, Spain, usually listed for early June. It starts and finishes in Plaza Mayor de Valladolid, putting the race day around the city’s main square. The event is a Carrera Popular, so it is aimed at everyday runners rather than an elite-only field. The course is all on asphalt and is not officially homologated, so the appeal is more local race-day atmosphere than certified-distance record chasing. C.D.V. Trotapinares, also listed as C.D.TROTAPINARES, organizes the race, which is at least into its thirteenth edition. Runners get chip timing and a cloakroom service, while the finish-side extras include trophies for the winners and a prize raffle.
