Marathon races near Portugalete

The Bilbao Night Running Fest guides participants through Bilbao after dark, beginning at San Mamés and concluding at the Guggenheim. The event features two options: a 21K half marathon and the 10K Pirate Race, catering to those seeking a substantial city run or a brief evening challenge. The course follows a city circuit on major avenues, differing from a secluded out-and-back path. Pyrotechnics, live entertainment, and numerous onlookers contribute to a festive atmosphere, distinct from typical road races. The city's football stadium and art museum define the course's start and end points.
