San Silvestre run in Motril

By Grandes Villas 2 min read

Dear guest, the San Silvestre Ciudad de Motril night run is a sporting event that takes place in the Granada town of Motril that consists of two types of runs, one popular (for anyone) and the other competitive (for more prepared athletes) separated into different categories through the streets of this town of Granada. This run is not only held in Motril, but in several cities in Spain on the occasion of the end of the year, since December 31 is the day of San Silvestre. Last year it was held in Motril on December 22nd, although initially it was going to be held on the 20th it had to be postponed due to the weather conditions. This year due to the pandemic the run has been canceled in Motril.
Enrolments in 2019
Enrolments had a cost of € 2 and were carried out through the website www.sansilvestremotril.es or in the Sports area office, in the municipal pavilion, on the 18th and 19th from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Also at the race secretariat, in the Plaza de La Coronación, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Friday 20 (for the popular race registration will be allowed up to 10 minutes before the start). All athletes will register in the run reserved for their category and, from youth (under 18) they will be able to choose the competitive or popular run. In the same way, athletes from the categories Smurfs to cadets (under 16) will be able to participate in the popular run with the same number.
Curiosity
As a curiosity in the popular run, many people go in costumes and the race really has a festive and good vibes atmosphere.
Dear guest, let's hope that when the health situation has stabilized and you are here on the dates of the San Silvestre de Motril run, you will come to the city and enjoy the festive atmosphere.
