Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Enel Night Race 10K 2026<\/strong> will officially kick off Colombia\u2019s road racing calendar and is set to light up Bogot\u00e1 on the night of Sunday, March 22<\/strong>. In its twelfth edition, this nighttime race will once again bring together 12,000 runners<\/strong> of all ages for a 10K route through some of the city\u2019s main avenues. Under the slogan \u201cUnleash the energy within you,\u201d the event blends sport, culture, and technology, with Enel Colombia providing sustainable lighting solutions to create a truly unique race experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Makes the Enel Night Race 10K 2026 Special?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The twelfth edition of the Enel Night Race will open the official calendar of the Colombian Athletics Federation and will once again welcome 12,000 participants. The start and finish lines will be located at Plazoleta Alfiles<\/strong> (Avenida Calle 26 #60-61), in the El Salitre area, with the race scheduled to begin at 7:00 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 10K course has been redesigned to reduce traffic impact and improve the experience for both runners and residents. It will pass along Avenida La Esperanza<\/strong>, the parallel road to Calle 26, Calle 44<\/strong>, and Carrera 50<\/strong>. Every two kilometers, runners will find energy stations offering hydration, restroom facilities, and medical assistance to ensure safety and smooth race flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among this year\u2019s highlights is the official race kit, which includes a technical T-shirt, a finisher\u2019s medal, and an innovative hands-free rechargeable headlamp in the form of a sports headband<\/strong>, activated by contact. This feature enhances safety while promoting sustainability by eliminating disposable batteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Night Race Glow Fest<\/strong> will take place from March 19 to 21 at Mall Plaza NQS (Carrera 30 with Calle 19). Participants can collect their race kits there and enjoy sports activities, interactive spaces, music, and commercial experiences that set the tone for the nighttime celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To register, participants must be at least 16 years old. Runners aged 16 and 17 must provide parental or guardian authorization. Registration is available through the event\u2019s official website and at Correcaminos de Colombia offices. The race aims to replicate the success of previous editions, in which more than 60,000 people have experienced the thrill of night running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Training Sessions and Pre-Race Activities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Organizers have scheduled several free training sessions to help registered runners arrive in peak condition. Four sessions will be held in different areas of Bogot\u00e1, led by certified coaches from Correcaminos de Colombia. These sessions will include strength work, running technique drills, and speed tests under artificial lighting to simulate real race conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
