Carreira Pedestre San Martiño

The Carreira Pedestre Popular do San Martiño is a 10 km road race in Ourense, taking place near the San Martiño festivities. It is listed on the Galician athletics schedule and is managed by the Federación Galega de Atletismo, indicating it is a local, officially administered race rather than a casual fun run. The event is described as non-competitive, yet results and rankings are still posted. This implies many participants approach it with seriousness, while others join for the communal aspect. Its editions have reached the high forties, lending it the character of an established Ourense tradition linked to one of the city’s fall festivals.
