For many locals, it’s a way to kick off Christmas Day with an invigorating challenge.

This year’s race showcased impressive performances and a heartwarming sense of community, reaffirming that the Copa Nadal is more than just a competition—it’s a celebration of tradition, resilience, and the enduring holiday spirit of Barcelona.
