I moved to Madrid recently and I did not have the chance to explore the city. So I signed up for the 6k run, hoping to see the highlights.
Despite the rain we did the tour and it was a great experience. We saw the major attractions in Madrid while exercising. It was Sunday morning so it was relatively quiet- which was good.
Ulrik was an excellent guide, enthusiastic and professional! Not only he shared historical facts but he also gave tips of places to go to eat and drink which was highly appreciated.
I highly recommend this run for both tourists and new-comers to Madrid. It is an alternative way to see the city; you exercise, you meet people and you learn a lot!
Highlights
Royal Palace of Madrid and Almudena Cathedral and history of Madrid
Plaza Del Humilladero and tips to all the bars and resturants in La Latina
Museum distric with Prado, Reina Sofia and Thyssen-Bornemisza
Description
During the run we will cover a lot of various topics such as history, art, restaurants, bars etc. Because we’re a small group (maximum 8 people) then it’s easy to ask questions and the guide will do their best to help where possible with recommendations and tips to ensure you’re having a great time while visiting Madrid.
During the run we will do a full stop at some of the attraction so you have time to take some photos and the guide will share some information. Some other attractions which we pass on the way will be covered while we run between the stops. The guide will also point out some attractions that are further afield, so you know where they are if you want to visit them on your own later. We won’t enter any of the museums, churches etc. during the run but they’re all worth their own visit.
Madrid is a busy city, and this will be reflected in the speed we run at and we will keep the same speed as the slowest runner in the group. If someone in the group feels they want to run a bit faster or longer than there is chance to do that at a couple of places during the tour.
