The event in a few words

Trail runner or roadie, the playground will be the same! ๐Ÿž๏ธ Head to Tossa de Mar, between the seaside and mountains โ›ฐ๏ธ. The Costa Brava will be in the spotlight, giving your race a holiday feel! ๐Ÿคฉ However, this is not a reason to stop for a drink at the refreshment terrace ๐Ÿ˜‚. We know it will be tempting ๐Ÿ‘€, but at the same time, the Run Festival Tossa de Mar, is the perfect event to party in the sun! ๐ŸŽ‰ By the Mediterranean ๐ŸŒŠ, in the Catalonia region, lies a nature haven kept from the general public ๐Ÿคซ. Good news, it will be the stage for the events this Sunday of May: the Massif of Cadiretes, or the Ardenya (whichever you prefer)!

And you will be able to discover the massif in two different ways ๐Ÿค“: through the paths or the road! ๐Ÿ›ฃ๏ธ Yes, here, there is no inequality between runners, you will all be entitled to the same landscapes and breathtaking seascapes ๐Ÿฅฐ. But only one parameter will vary: the distance โ†”๏ธ. The further you go, the more you can admire the beaches ๐Ÿ–๏ธ, coves, and inlets that line the coast. It's up to you to choose between 5 km, 10 km, or 21 km on the pavement or 8 or 17 km through the thickets! ๐ŸŒณ What's certain is that you won't get lost on the routes ๐Ÿงญ as they are out-and-back for the road races and loops for the trails ๐Ÿ”„๏ธ. At least you'll be able to enjoy the landscapes for twice as long! ๐Ÿ˜Ž And you'll find the finish without any problem as the atmosphere will be caliente ๐Ÿ”ฅ. The Run Festival Tossa de Mar brings together hundreds of supporters ๐Ÿ‘ in the city center and on the beaches to properly celebrate running! ๐Ÿ†

And the party continues even after the event! ๐Ÿฅณ But since we know you'll have given it your all in your race ๐Ÿฅต, we prefer to give you some tips to relax and end your weekend on a chill note, lounging with your feet up ๐Ÿ˜. Speaking of lounging, we suggest getting a fan if you plan to sunbathe on the beach! ๐Ÿชญ "Hace mucho calor en la playa de Tossa": says the deck chair waiting for you at the water's edge ๐ŸŒž. To enjoy the end of the day, you can dive into the culture of the city this time, by visiting the medieval old town of Tossa de Mar and its castle ๐Ÿฐ.

Before running at the festival this summer, come run the Run Festival Tossa de Mar! ๐Ÿ˜‰

4 reasons to join this race

The Massif of Cadiretes โ›ฐ๏ธ
This massif in the province of Girona covers almost the entire commune of Tossa! Naturally, the event routes will explore its roads and paths. Trail friends, you will discover the natural coast of the Costa Brava with its typical Mediterranean fauna! Road friends, the landscape won't differ much, but you won't have to worry about where you place your feet! ๐Ÿƒโ€โžก๏ธ In both cases, prepare your sunglasses because you'll be dazzled by the beauty of the panoramas! ๐Ÿคฉ
The Costa Brava ๐ŸŒŠ
Fine sandy beaches, small hidden coves away from tourists, the sound of waves crashing on the rocks... Ahhh, you can already imagine it, right? But no, we're not talking about your next vacation on the Costa Brava but about the Run Festival Tossa de Mar! It's in this paradise setting that you'll start your road race or trail. So get your camera and sunscreen ready, this event will give you a taste of a holiday! ๐ŸŒž
To party ๐ŸŽ‰
It's all in the name; this event is a real festival! Not a bad argument to attract runners, even more so when the race takes place on the Costa Brava. But you'll have to face your test first before you can swap your sneakers for flip-flops and your hydration bag for a beach bag with towels in it! ๐Ÿ˜‚
Two disciplines, one event ๐Ÿ˜‰
Road race or trail, you'll have to choose! It's not every day that you have an environment suitable for both disciplines, so choose wisely! In any case, you won't have any regrets; the terrain is the same: the Massif of Cadiretes. Maybe it's time to step out of your comfort zone and test a new playing field? ๐Ÿ‘€
