About the event
Starting with the longer races, the 5km participants enjoy a condensed version of the course, with minimal elevation and maximum scenic appeal, running alongside the Pacific Ocean. This distance is ideal for those new to running or those who prefer a less intense, more scenic race experience. The atmosphere is festive and family-friendly, with plenty of encouragement from spectators and fellow runners. After crossing the finish line, participants can join in the beachside festivities, making the most of their race day in one of Costa Rica’s most lively beach towns.
