Quirónprevención La Carrera de las Empresas Madrid brings office rivalries to the streets. Self-employed individuals and company teams of two, three, or four compete. This 5 km or 10 km road race runs through Madrid’s business district, beginning in the morning on Paseo de la Castellana, near Plaza del Doctor Marañón. Over 30,000 runners from more than 1,600 companies are anticipated, making it Spain's largest team event of its type.
The course winds through Madrid's commercial center, with the surroundings reflecting the race's concept: colleagues competing near the offices, towers, and broad avenues where they often work. The event aligns with the Christmas season's spirit, maintaining a straightforward, competitive format: company versus company, teammate alongside teammate, with many runners aiming to outperform their superiors. Its draw lies in the blend of health, teamwork, collective effort, and good-natured competition, not solely in elite performance.
