CORRIDA DOS PROFESSORES 2026

On October 18, 2026, runners and walkers are invited to the vibrant streets of Rio de Janeiro for an inspiring race that combines athletic competition with community service. The event takes place at Praça da Apoteose near the Sambódromo on Rua Marquês de Sapucaí in Santo Cristo.
Participants must bring a can of powdered whole milk, valid for at least three months from the date of collection when picking up their race kit. This initiative supports local communities and ensures that every step taken contributes to positive social impact.

The route weaves through iconic Rio locations, offering runners a scenic backdrop of cultural landmarks and vibrant city life. For those using public transportation, Setor 11 is recommended for train access while Setor 10 provides easy metro connections.
Runners aged 14 years or older are welcome to participate in the 5km race, with minors under 18 requiring a signed authorization from their legal guardian along with proof of identity. The event promises an energetic atmosphere and celebrates top finishers with trophies for both men's and women's categories, while additional prizes may be awarded at the discretion of organizers.
This unique blend of sport and social responsibility makes it a memorable day out in Rio de Janeiro.
