The Consell Insular’s sports councillor Salvador Losa was in charge of starting the race in the port of Ibiza, on the shores of the Mediterranean and the Castell de Dalt Vila, which is recognised as a World Heritage Site. The runners were able to enjoy a temperature of 25ºC during the race and the varied landscape of the island, passing through the most important towns of the magical island, rural areas and some passing points in front of the waters of Ibiza. During the race there were some very emotional moments in the relay area of the Relay 21k+21k located in the town of Santa Gertrudis with a large crowd supporting the runners as they handed over the baton to their companions who finished the second part of the course.
The men’s podium was completed in second place by the Valencian Alberto Candela with a time of 02:56:31 and in third place by the athlete Manuel Pérez who stopped the clock in 03:01:46. The prizes were presented by the councillor of sports, Salvador Losa, the councillor of sports of Santa Euràlia Toni Ramón and the councillor of sports of the Ibiza Town Hall Elena López.
