The race represents the union of Olympic and Jacobean values. In this relay race, 10 teams made up of 10 people each will run a total distance of 785 km between Roncesvalles and Santiago de Compostela.

Preparations for this new competition got underway in 2016, on the occasion of the Jubilee of Mercy, the year of the Olympic Games and the 120th anniversary of the first Games of the modern era.

About the race

The race will start off in Roncesvalles and travel 785 km in six days, ending in Obradoiro Square.
