The 39th Sant Cugat Half Marathon, organized by the Club Muntanyenc Sant Cugat and the City Council, will be held on Sunday, February 1st, with 2,100 athletes registered across three distances.

The 39th edition of the Sant Cugat Half Marathon already has 2,100 confirmed athletes for the race taking place on Sunday, February 1st. The event, organized by the Club Muntanyenc Sant Cugat and the City Council, offers three distances: 5, 10, and 21 kilometers, with a total limit of 3,000 participants.
The route remains similar to the previous edition, noted for being a very flat course centered on the city's historic core. The start will be at Avinguda del Pla del Vinyet and the finish line at Plaça de la Vila. The 10 km and 21 km races will start at 9:30 AM, while the 5 km race will kick off at 9:00 AM.

"It is a consolidated event in the sports calendar and demonstrates that the city is a sporting benchmark. The race, however, would not be possible without the dedication and work of the Club Muntanyenc Sant Cugat, a race that also functions as a tool for social cohesion."

A notable feature is the T-shirt design for this edition, commissioned to local artist Carles Azcón. The garment features the Pi d'en Xandri with its new silhouette after a branch fell. T-shirt colors will vary by distance: blue (21 km), orange (10 km), and green (5 km).
Runners can collect their bibs at the Runner's Fair (Fira del Corredor), held at Sala Canigó on Saturday, January 31st (10 AM to 8 PM) and on Sunday, February 1st (7 AM to 8:30 AM). The awards ceremony will take place starting at 11:30 AM at Plaça de la Vila.
