About the Bogotá 5K
The Bogotá 5K delivers Colombian highland energy at serious altitude. Runners navigate through South America's third-highest capital at 2,640 meters elevation surrounded by Andean peaks. February's dry season creates ideal racing conditions as participants experience both Spanish colonial architecture and modern Colombian vitality. The challenging course features both altitude and moderate hills while providing continuous urban interest. Colombian spectators create an atmosphere of passionate caffeinated energy as participants flow through streets in a nation rapidly transforming its global image. This significant race captures Bogotá's distinctive character—geographically elevated yet culturally vibrant—offering a quintessential Andean running experience in one of South America's most dynamic capitals without requiring elite mountain endurance.
