About this race
Penafiel Run 26 is a running event held in Penafiel, Portugal, during September. It features a timed 10 km race and a 5 km mini-race/walk. The morning begins early, with the 10 km race starting before the 5 km option. This setup accommodates both runners aiming for a specific time and individuals seeking a more relaxed community event.
The 5 km walk is untimed and welcomes participants of all ages, from young children to seniors. The 10 km race categorizes participants by youth, senior, and veteran divisions for both men and women. The event also supports the three firefighter corporations within the municipality of Penafiel. All participants are given a T-shirt, contributing to the local, club-and-community atmosphere of the day.
