The Costa Brava Stage Run (CBSR) came to an end today with the arrival of the final runners at the finish line in Colera. After three intense stages starting on Friday in Blanes, the event continues to establish itself as one of the most unique trail running races in Europe, not only for its scenery but also for the intensity of the experience.

A challenge shaped by heat and coastal beauty

Although the weather remained stable and offered clear views of the Mediterranean, the heat became the unexpected protagonist of the weekend. High temperatures added an extra level of difficulty to an already technical and demanding course. Despite the physical effort, overall satisfaction was very high: participants highlighted the organization's attention to detail and the beauty of a route stretching from the cliffs of the Selva Marítima to the almost lunar landscapes of Cap de Creus.

The "Stage Run" spirit: beyond competition

If there is one thing that defines CBSR, it is its atmosphere. Over these three days, the sense of community has been constant. From the excitement at the finish lines to the shared moments during dinners and evening briefings, a great family was formed, bringing together runners from 27 nationalities. Different cultures and languages came together through a shared passion for trail running and respect for the environment.

Clear dominance in competition

From a sporting perspective, this year's edition featured a very high competitive level. In both the 120 km and 80 km races, strong leaders managed their effort and the heat perfectly to maintain their positions throughout all three stages.

These are the official podiums of the Costa Brava Stage Run 2026:
