VII Cursa de les Empreses de la Safor-Cajamar in Gandia: run or walk as a team

On Sunday 15 November 2026, Gandia hosts the VII Cursa de les Empreses de la Safor-Cajamar, a 6.13-kilometre city race that can be completed running or walking, as part of a company team or on your own. The start is at 9.30 am on Avinguda dels Esports.

The race is organised by Club d’Atletisme Safor Teika and brings together company teams, professionals and individual runners for a morning of sport on the streets of Gandia.

A flat, 6.13-kilometre city course

The start and finish will be on Avinguda dels Esports, opposite Col·legi Públic Gregori Mayans, in the Corea neighbourhood. The flat city course, on asphalt, runs through the Corea neighbourhood, the Centre Històric and Parc d’Ausiàs March, where there will be a water station. The park takes its name from Ausiàs March, the classical poet connected with Gandia.

The finish control closes 60 minutes after the starting signal, a margin designed for anyone who prefers to complete the course walking at a relaxed pace.
