About this race
Lynxrace Oeiras is an obstacle-course race in Oeiras, held in early November at the Quinta de Cima do Palácio do Marquês de Pombal. The event offers 5K and 10K races, plus a 2K Lynxrace Kids race, with Open and Competitive formats for different levels of commitment. Open uses timing but maintains a more relaxed atmosphere, while Competitive adds stricter rules, a mandatory briefing, and a penalty system.
The course is within the Estação Agronómica and uses natural and artificial obstacles, requiring runners to have strength, endurance, technique, and teamwork. It is part of the Lynx Circuit and serves as the circuit’s final stage, attracting obstacle-racing athletes from across Portugal, as well as beginners and families. Starts are sent off in small groups, and the day includes a Lynx Village for kit pickup, kids racing, podiums, and awards.
