Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

CorreSan Barrio de San Pedro

CorreSan Barrio de San Pedro is a 5 km running event in Santiago de Compostela, in the province of A Coruña. It is listed as a non-competitive race, so it reads more like a neighborhood run than a formal contest for places and times. The available listing is thin on course details, but the Barrio de San Pedro name points to one of Santiago’s established urban neighborhoods rather than a road race built around a point-to-point route. The event appears on a wider A Coruña race calendar, with classifications still pending and alerts offered for runners who want to be notified when the next edition is confirmed.

Grand Prix d'Athlétisme Silva

The Grand Prix d'Athlétisme Silva, held in late October in Barcelos, Braga district, Portugal, offers a 10 km road race and a 5 km option. The 10 km is the primary event, while the 5 km can be used for a solidarity walk or a less competitive run. The course winds through Barcelos' historic center, showcasing its old streets and the Gothic Bridge. This event combines athletic participation with support for a local charity. Typical late October weather in Barcelos includes cool temperatures ranging from 6-14°C, with a mix of cloudy days, occasional rain, and crisp sunshine.

Carreira Internacional de Negreira

The Carreira Internacional de Negreira is a running event held in Negreira, A Coruña, Galicia. It is listed on the official calendar of the Galician Athletics Federation. The program offers participants two options: a 10 km or a 5 km race, both designated as non-competitive. The event is categorized as a “Clásica” by Carreiras Galegas, indicating it is a regular fixture on Galicia’s road-running schedule. The public listing provides results and classifications, an official event website, and an option for runners to receive notifications about future race dates.

CorreSan Ruta da Prata - Angrois

The CorreSan Ruta da Prata - Angrois is a short running event held in Angrois, within Santiago de Compostela, A Coruña. The official race distance is 5.2 km. It is scheduled for November, though the exact date requires confirmation. The primary race is designated as non-competitive, suggesting it functions more as a local community gathering than a competitive race. The event details include classifications and results, a link to the race's official website, and a notification option for runners when the date is confirmed.

Carrera de Papá Noel de Santiago de Compostela

Every participant in the Carrera de Papá Noel de Santiago de Compostela receives a complete Santa suit, including trousers, jacket, belt, hat, and beard. This is a non-competitive 5 km run taking place in Santiago de Compostela, A Coruña, during December as part of the city’s Christmas festivities. The registration also provides a race bib and a participation certificate, indicating the event focuses more on joining the holiday atmosphere than on achieving a specific time. The race is organized by Deporticket and combines the Christmas theme with fundraising for ASANOG, the Galician Association for Childhood and Adolescent Cancer. Participants can offer additional support via the Dorsal 0 option, allowing contributions from those unable to run. A portion of the funds generated supports ASANOG's programs, which assist children with cancer and their families in hospitals and homes throughout Galicia.

Carreira Nocturna de Nadal Ferse

The Carreira Nocturna de Nadal Ferse is a Christmas night run in Pontevedra. The 5 km distance is listed as non-competitive. The event is on the holiday calendar, but the exact scheduling is unconfirmed. The race details are sparse: there is no confirmed course map, and results are pending. Runners can request notification when classifications are posted. Buscametas lists it among Pontevedra events and labels it a featured challenge. The organizer platform also offers timing, digital classifications, promotion, and contact options for event inquiries.

San Silvestre Muradana

San Silvestre Muradana is a 5 km race held in Muros, a coastal town in A Coruña, Galicia. It takes place in late December, following the Spanish San Silvestre tradition of short year-end races for local runners and visitors. The event is part of the A Coruña running calendar and is intended for everyday participants, not solely competitive athletes. The course is a 5 km race based in Muros, with registration and route details available through the race listing.

Semi-Marathon de Braga

The Semi-Marathon de Braga begins on Av. João Paulo II in Braga, Portugal’s Minho region, situated between Porto and the Spanish border. The event offers participants three options: a 21 km half marathon for experienced runners, the quicker Super 5 km, and a non-competitive 6 km walk. The half marathon has a 3-hour time limit, accommodating both those aiming for a strong performance and individuals preferring a more relaxed finish. The course winds through Braga’s historic streets, connecting the race to one of Portugal’s oldest cities, with over 2,000 years of history. Braga is known as the Portuguese Rome because of its numerous churches. Participants can visit sites such as the Sé de Braga, Portugal’s oldest cathedral, the Jardim de Santa Bárbara, Avenida da Liberdade, and the Bom Jesus do Monte sanctuary, notable for its extensive staircases, around race weekend. The event attracts runners globally and from various age groups, with the local francesinha sandwich serving as a popular post-race reward for finishers.

About 5K races in Vigo

Vigo Training Notes

Vigo hosts 16 5K races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run the coast first, because Praia de Samil, Bouzas, the Lagares River, and the Vigo Estuary make easy Z2 feel better than it should. Vigo Runners keeps the social side simple, with Tuesday 7pm and Sunday 8:30am meets at Vigo Rugby Club, and everyone gets a route that fits. The city centre gives you Casco Vello, Porta do Sol, Policarpo Sanz, Alameda, Príncipe, and Urzaiz when you want sharper intervals. Vig-Bay is the anchor event, and the Medio Maratón Gran Bahía Vig-Bay connects Vigo to Bayona while hugging the coast with views of the Islas Cíes.

Locals ride by mood. Samil Beach gives an easy coastal spin, the da Auga Route runs beside the Vigo Estuary, the Blue Path links the Lagares River to the sea, and Bouzas Promenade borders O Adro Beach. Coia has the Castelao Avenue bike trail for steady laps. Fragoselo is the mountain-bike park when the singletrack itch hits, and O Marisquiño brings the downhill edge. Monte Aloia is where the climbs get honest, and the Aloia/Couso route covers 45 km with 1,030 m of elevation. The Aloia/Couso route covers 45 km with 1,030 m of elevation.

Vigo stays mild through the year, so locals can keep base miles alive without making a drama of the calendar. Summer dries things out, and the coast around Samil, Toralla, Bouzas, and the Ria de Vigo works well for early runs and longer rides. Winter changes the job. 2 mm in one month at the weather station. Runners lean into road races like Subida ao Castro, Calvario 5+5, and 10 K de Teis, while riders choose windows and keep Monte Aloia for days with grip.
