The 7ª Volta a Peu Runners Ciutat de València is a morning 5K in Valencia, starting on Avenida de Aragón and finishing beside the Mestalla facade. It offers a timed competitive race, a non-competitive 5K called “A tu ritmo” for people who want to run at their own pace, and short non-competitive children’s races for under-14s. The main field starts early, with the relaxed 5K a few minutes later and the children’s races later in the morning.
The route uses Avenida Aragón and Gran Vía, with Mestalla as the main landmark. The 5K is officially homologated, which matters for runners chasing a proper recorded time. The race belongs to the Caixa Popular Circuit of popular races in Valencia and is organized by the Municipal Sports Foundation with the Runners Ciutat de València club. It was moved earlier in the morning after a weather suspension, and the rules state an orange AEMET alert can cancel the race, with runners then choosing a refund or free entry to another circuit race.
