The Velho Chico Run 2026 is scheduled for Sunday, November 29, in Propriá, Sergipe, Brazil. Participants are to gather at 5:30 a.m. at Varanda do Velho Chico, with the start planned for 6 a.m. Organized by FitPlan Assessoria, the second edition offers 2.5 km, 5 km and 10 km distances. On October 30, 2026, the entry page showed registration open and prices of R$ 99.90 for the categories visible, subject to confirmation before payment.
How to register and how much it costs
Entries are processed through the Velho Chico Run event page on Inscrições.com.br. Entrants select the category matching their distance and participant profile, provide the requested details and review the checkout summary. The platform accepts Pix or card payments and states that registration is confirmed only after payment approval.
The event advertises 20 categories. In the publicly visible list, the displayed 2.5 km and 10 km options, including women’s, men’s and disability (PCD) categories, cost R$ 99.90. The final amount, possible additional charges, discounts and availability must be checked at checkout. No verifiable registration closing date was stated in the accessible event listing.
Which distance to choose: routes, ages and standings

The announcement specifies the distances but does not provide a street-by-street description of each course in accessible text. Those descriptions should not be mistaken for a detailed official route map. Check FitPlan’s guidance and any updates before travelling.
How the awards work
According to the organizer, trophies will go to the top three finishers in the women’s, men’s and PCD overall classifications at each of the 2.5 km, 5 km and 10 km distances.
The 5 km event also offers trophies for the top three women and men in each age bracket: 14-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59 and 60 or over. The accessible announcement does not establish that cash prizes will be awarded or that an athlete may combine trophies from different classifications.
Meeting point, on-site support and athlete insurance
The meeting time is 5:30 a.m. at Varanda do Velho Chico, in Propriá, in the area of the Sergipe-Alagoas Integration Bridge. The start is scheduled for 6 a.m., local Sergipe time (UTC-3). Listed event services include an ambulance, trained first responders, support vehicles, photographers, fruit, hydration, an athlete kit and athlete insurance.
The advertised policy is provided by Porto Seguro, with stated cover of up to R$ 50,000 for accidental death and permanent accidental disability, and up to R$ 5,000 for medical, hospital or dental expenses, subject to the applicable conditions. There is an important distinction: although some entry categories accept people up to age 80, the page specifies an insurance age limit of 74. Entrants should verify the actual policy terms and their eligibility with the organizer before paying.
Kit collection and details still to be confirmed
An athlete kit is listed as included, but its pickup date, location, time and specific required documents could not be confirmed from the accessible public listing. The event page also links to a PDF rulebook, but its contents could not be checked during this research. Previous editions’ schedules should not be assumed to apply to 2026.
To confirm kit collection, course maps, classification rules and any changes, use the contact details listed on the official registration page. The organizer provides WhatsApp number +55 (79) 99961-1571 for event-related questions.
Velho Chico Run Kids is a separate race
The Velho Chico Run Kids 2026 is listed separately for Saturday, November 28, on the Propriá waterfront, with a 3:30 p.m. gathering and 4 p.m. start. It has its own registration and children’s distances and should not be confused with Sunday’s 2.5 km, 5 km and 10 km race.
