Aracaju is the capital of the state of Sergipe, with a population of approximately 670,000 residents. Known for having one of the best urban qualities of life in Northeast Brazil, the city is famous for its clean beaches and organized "Orla" (waterfront). The demographic profile is primarily Brazilian (approx. 99%), with a vibrant culture of outdoor fitness and early-morning sports to avoid the tropical heat. The median household income in the upscale 13 de Julho and Atalaia neighborhoods is roughly R$ 4,500 per month. Geographically, the race takes place on the Av. Santos Dumont, a long, paved corridor bordering the Atlantic Ocean. The climate in early May is tropical and humid; while mornings are bright, temperatures average 25°C, making the early 5:00 AM start time essential for athlete safety and comfort.
Kit collection takes place from May 7 to May 9 at the Track&Field store in the 13 de Julho district. Registered athletes receive an exclusive TFSports kit, and all finishers are awarded a collectible medal. The event is designed with accessibility in mind, providing specific benefits and support for athletes with disabilities (PCD). A new feature for the 2026 series allows podium finishers to claim a complimentary entry for a future stage within the same year. To participate in the village activations, runners must complete a digital check-in using the TFSports app and their individual token. For further support or registration queries, participants can access the Zendes-based help center or the official Run Series portal.
