Superfast Innopork reaches the Aqueduct on 8 November
Segovia Tourism lists the Superfast Innopork Ciudad de Segovia among the city’s 2026 sporting events. Its official calendar gives 8 November 2026 as the date and says the course starts beside the Pedro Delgado pavilion before finishing beside the Aqueduct.
The event listing describes a route that follows the descent towards the monument, linking sport with the city’s Roman heritage. A separate event page identifies the race as the II SuperFast Innoporc 5k, scheduled for Sunday, 8 November 2026, in Segovia. It gives Intenxity Sport as the organiser and lists registrations as open when the page was updated.
The race therefore uses the Aqueduct as more than a city reference. Its final stretch is planned for the monument’s immediate setting, placing the finish beside one of Segovia’s defining architectural landmarks. The official programme does not announce a closure or a change to the monument’s ordinary visitor access for the race.
Segovia Tourism event calendar records the date, start and finish points. The event page gives further details about the 8 November race listing.
Roman engineering gives the finish its setting
The monument was built during a period estimated to be after 112 AD, towards the end of the reign of Trajan or during Hadrian’s rule. It carried water to Segovia for centuries, continuing that function until the last third of the twentieth century.
The Aqueduct rises to 28.10 metres at Azoguejo square and is supported by 167 arches and 120 pillars. Its 20,400 granite pieces were joined without mortar, using the balance of the stones to hold the structure together. These details make the finish beside the lower square a direct meeting of a modern road race and Roman hydraulic engineering.
Segovia’s historic centre and aqueduct became a World Heritage Site on 6 December 1985. The monument was declared a Historic Monument on 11 October 1884, giving the November race a setting shaped by both national heritage protection and international recognition. The city’s history of the Aqueduct records these milestones and its main structural figures.

- The published route places the finish beside the monument, but no race-related closure or special access arrangement is announced in the official event listing.
