The Media Maratón Costa de la Luz connects two Atlantic towns on the northern Cádiz coast, and in 2027 it reaches its 40th edition. It’s on Sunday 14 March 2027, starting at 9:30 at the Castillo de Luna in Rota and finishing in Plaza de Andalucía in Chipiona. The two councils organise it with Club Atletismo Chipiona, the Andalusian federation and the Cádiz provincial council.
Rota to Chipiona
The 21.097 km route follows the coast between the two towns. Earlier editions were listed running from Chipiona to Rota, so the direction for 2027 is Rota to Chipiona. It is a quick course, but open to the Atlantic wind, so a tailwind can make for a fast day. Being point to point, plan how you will get back to your start point.
Entries
Registration opened at 10:00 on 1 October 2026 through Gesconchip. The early-bird price is €15 for the first 100 entries or until 15 October, with higher prices in later phases. The 39th edition in March 2026 sold out its 600 bibs and set a record for entries, so expect the 40th to fill early.
