About the 21K de Buenos Aires
The 21K is the speed-focused companion to the Buenos Aires Marathon and one of South America's deepest road halves. Seeded corrals and a three-hour limit accommodate a broad mass field while preserving a serious race at the front.
Course
The certified 21.0975-kilometer route runs entirely on city asphalt, starting and finishing at Avenida Figueroa Alcorta and Dorrego. The profile is built for speed, but runners should check the edition-specific map before planning tangents or spectator spots.
Race-day weather
August is winter in Buenos Aires, so race morning is often cool enough for fast running. Wind and direct sun on the city's broad avenues can still affect pacing once the field spreads out.
