Local Tips
- •Altitude is 2,600m - expect to run 30-60 seconds slower per km initially. Hydrate obsessively.
- •Every Sunday 7am-2pm Ciclovía closes 120km of streets to cars. It's a runners' paradise.
- •Air quality varies. Check pollution index before morning runs. Parks are best for clean air.
- •Rainy season is April-May and October-November. Bring waterproof jacket year-round.
- •Crime exists but running groups are safe. Stick to main parks and populated areas. Run with crews.
- •Bogotá's run clubs are incredibly welcoming to internationals. Spanish helps but not required.
