The sporting and tourism event, which covers the 21K and 10K distances and will take place on November 22, continues to see growth in participation
The last edition of the 2024 Benidorm Half concluded with 6,500 runners. For the 2025 event, which will take place on November 22, that registration rate has been substantially exceeded. In fact, the 8,000-runner mark has already been surpassed. And the option to participate in this major event, which runs through Benidorm over the 21K and 10K distances, will remain open until November 16th, when the organizer, Tour-Sport Promociones Deportivas, will close the registration period.
The Benidorm Half 2025 is no longer just different from the previous edition with an additional 1,500 runners, a figure that is sure to continue to grow over the next three weeks. It is also growing in terms of foreign participation. This is further underscored by a very revealing fact: of the total, 48.7% are of British origin and residence.
Regarding the participants in the Half Marathon, to date, there are more than 4,100 runners; in the case of the 10K, the figure rises to 3,895.
The course will be approved for both distances, and it’s worth noting that the race is included in the national calendar of the Royal Spanish Athletics Federation (RFEA). The 21K (21,097 meters) and 10K (10,000 meters) will start at Av. Comunidad Valenciana (corner of Calle Bélgica) and finish at Plaza de SS.MM los Reyes de España, 1, Benidorm (City Hall). As in the last two editions, the Benidorm Half, organized by Tour-Sport Promociones Deportivas, will feature recreational runners and will also continue to focus on the presence of elite athletes.
The Benidorm Half is organized by Tour-Sport Promociones Deportivas and in 2025 will have the institutional support of Benidorm City Council and Visit Benidorm, while private sponsors include Meliá Benidorm, Olympikus, Sprinter, Coca-Cola, and Sala Marina. More information at: www.benidormhalf.com
