You can still sign up here to run the race this year
Every year, since 1964, on 31 December Madrid has been playing host to the largest athletics event in Spain. One of the only four 10K races in the world to boast the IAAF Gold Race Running Label, the festive race even comes with fake snow.
The event has two parts, the fun run (which anyone over 16 can take part in) and a professional race, and is regarded as a fairly easy event since 8 out of the 10 kilometres are slightly downhill.
Although the fun run officially kicks off at 5.30pm from Calle Concha Espina it will have a wave start, meaning runners will be starting at different intervals (check times). The professional race will commence at 8pm and it will feature top international athletes.
On 22 December the Paseo del Prado will hold the San Silvestre Mini for kids under 15. The professional race will finish in the Vallecas Stadium and the fun run nearby the football stadium. p>
