The race
The race is organised by UD Ibiza in collaboration with Ibiza Blue Challenge and Ibiza Town Council. This new sporting event offers participants a choice of two distances — 10 kilometres and 5 kilometres — both on an urban circuit.
The start and finish lines for both races will be located in front of the UD Ibiza stadium, and one of the highlights of the route will be the final stretch inside the Palladium Can Misses facilities. Registration — with limited places available via the Sportmaniacs platform — starts from €10 depending on the selected distance. Entry also includes a UD Ibiza gift pack.
