Karmengo Jaiak is a 5 km race held in Pasaia, Gipuzkoa, within Spain’s Basque Country. It takes place in July, beginning at Plaza de los Gudaris in Trintxerpe, a district of Pasaia. TRIKAIA A.K. is the organizer, and the race is intended for all types of runners, not exclusively club athletes.
The course is straightforward: participants start from Trintxerpe square for a short road race distance suitable for beginners, local runners, and faster athletes seeking a quick 5K. The event is in its early stages, with its second edition attracting approximately 120 registrations. The organizers state it incorporates “everything we like as runners” in a 5K race.
