Oaxaca Downtown Run

Ten to thirty two kilometres from the historic centre, 6.2 to 19.9 miles, run either at sunrise or at sunset. The same streets, at two very different times of day.

The figures are booking totals, not prices per person. One runner pays the base for the distance, and each extra runner, up to four, adds half of that base, rounded up to the nearest $5. Five or more, we quote the group.

There is no minimum. One runner is a booking. Ten kilometres is our usual route through the centre. Longer distances are planned with you for your booking, and we confirm the route, the date and the start time before you commit.

What the run is like

The route takes in the historic centre, run either at first light or at sunset. It is the same streets both times and it is not the same run: at sunrise the city is quiet and cool, and at sunset it is busy and warm.

This is the one to book if you have a single free morning or evening and no travel day to spare. You start from the centre, you finish in the centre, and you avoid the heat of the day.
