THE COMPANIES RACE

Teamwork and well-understood competition in order to excel and achieve objectives. All of the above, apart from health, are part of the philosophy of Quirónprevención La Carrera de las Empresas (The Companies Race), which celebrated its 24th edition in 2023 while filling the financial heart of Madrid.

Running is a powerful tool to convey uplifting values. Struggle, personal growth, perseverance and teamwork are the driving forces to reach a goal in sports and a job. Quirónprevención La Carrera de las Empresas (The Companies Race) strengthens bonds in the workplace and boosts the company’s commitment to the well-being and health of its workers.

Suitable for all workers, regardless of their sporting level, Quirónprevención La Carrera de las Empresas consists of two distances: 6.5 and 10 kilometres. Leaving at the same time from Plaza San Juan de la Cruz, the more than 17,000 participants from over a thousand companies took off along the Paseo de la Castellana in 2023 on a journey through the financial heart of the capital, which took them to Plaza de Castilla, to then return to the finish line in the short-distance version or run the whole 10 kilometres until Plaza de Colón to finish on Plaza San Juan de la Cruz.

The self-employed are also taken into account in Quirónprevención La Carrera de las Empresas (The Companies Race), with their own individual male and female classifications. Because sport unites us, allows us to strive for the same goals and keeps us healthy and in the best condition to perform at our best in all areas of our lives, including at work.
