SAN SILVESTRE GADITANA

The San Silvestre Gaditana is a popular end-of-year running event in Cádiz, organized by Club Polideportivo Olimpo. As a San Silvestre race, it follows the Spanish tradition of festive late-December runs, featuring athletics, general running categories, and children’s races within the same program. The event details do not specify a route, but it is structured as a complete local race day, not merely a start and finish. Participants receive timing, trophies, a runner’s bag, liquid and solid refreshments, showers, changing rooms, restrooms, medical support, a finish-line announcer, and a gift raffle. It is also designated as a solidarity event and is listed on the regional calendar, providing it with official recognition beyond a local fun run.
