The 10/5 Miles Maó City is more than a sports event, it’s a race through history whose journey will take place for the historical and natural heritage of the island of Menorca, a Biosphere Reserve.

The 10/5 Miles Maó City wants to be a nod to the British tradition that has been part of this territory, as it is presented in an unprecedented way in miles, a measure of English longitude, and not in kilometers as usual. For more than a hundred years, Menorca belonged to the British crown and as a result of this influence, close ties were forever established through culture, architecture, gastronomy or even language (there are words of English origin incorporated into Menorca).

The sixth edition, like the previous ones, will feature the Port of Maó, the largest natural port in the Mediterranean, the Fortress of La Mola or the Naval Base, which will reopen its doors to visit Pinto Island. Upon arrival at the heart of the port, the absolute winner man and the absolute winner woman, will get as a reward one of the most genuine treasures of this land, a batch of Mahón Cheese, ten or five kilos, depending on the race.
