Event summary
The 2 Léguas da Eurocidade 2026 is a running event taking place on October 25, 2026, in Valença. It features four simultaneous races: a competitive 10 km race for athletes aged 18 and over, a 1.5 km Mini Léguas for youth aged 12 to 17, a 5 km walk, and a 500 m Léguazinha for children aged 7 to 11, who may be accompanied by an adult.
The main 10 km race is mostly flat and open to both federated and non-federated athletes, with prizes awarded to the top three finishers in each age and gender category. The event offers a family-friendly atmosphere with non-competitive races for younger participants and walkers, including medals for all finishers in these categories.
