Running in Barcelona



 With sub-zero temperatures hitting the UK it was a pleasure to be in Barcelona. With day time temperatures of  around 20C.

Running it would seem is very popular. With hundreds out running throughout the day. A  quick check on Strava showed that 273 people had completed a short ‘Strava Section’ along by the Marina, between early morning and lunch time.

Barcelona lends itself to sightseeing runs through the streets but the most popular, as Barcelona is a coastal city, would appear to be along the Marina and along the coastal path. Although I think this route would be extremely busy during the summer.

There are a number of  athletic and sports clubs in the area, such as BCTeam, Prorunners Barcelona and The Casual Runners Club.

All in all a great way to beat the winter blues and run a couple of new routes.
