Distance
Terrain
The Corrida e Caminhada pela Diabetes comes to Coimbra on Saturday 14 November 2026 with a single 5 kilometre distance that can be run or walked. Both the corrida (run) and the caminhada (walk) cover the same 5 kilometre distance, so runners and walkers share the day and the start area in the city. The event raises awareness of diabetes and invites people of all levels, from club runners to families out for a morning stroll. Entry, start times and route details are published by the organisers on their own registration page, which is worth checking before travelling.

Yes. The event is built around two separate categories, a run and a walk, and the walk covers the same 5 kilometres at an easy pace, so no running experience is needed.
The event is held in the city of Coimbra in central Portugal. The precise start and finish location is published by the organisers, so check their page for the meeting point before you travel.
The race and walk are organised to raise awareness of diabetes, and the day brings together local runners, walkers and supporters around that cause.
