Where and when to collect your Lima 10km Run race bib

To the start line,
step by step.

Pick up your bib, check your wave.
So on race morning, you can just run.

Stations & transport near the venue

Buy a Lima Pass card (about S/4.50) at any Metropolitano station and load cash onto it — foreign contactless bank cards don't work directly at the turnstiles, you need the local card.

Getting to the start

Parque Kennedy, Miraflores (Av. José Larco 400) — Lima Metro Línea 1 Angamos station (~18 min walk), Metropolitano BRT Ricardo Palma station, or local bus 'Parque Kennedy/Berlín' stop (~3 min walk)

10K start 5:00am (per 2025 edition).

Same organizer (Lima42K/Peru Runners) also runs the marathon/half under the separate DB entry maratnlifelima42k — same start area but different finish point.

Getting to the finish

Av. Diagonal, near Parque Kennedy, Miraflores

Out-and-back route via Av.

Arequipa and the coastal Malecón.

Heavy road closures/diversions through Miraflores on race morning (e.g. Corredor Azul bus route).

More details

No dedicated race shuttle found;

use public transit noted above, checking local traffic-diversion notices close to race day.

IC card

Lima Pass

Any Metropolitano station (ticket counters and recharge modules)

Not accepted at the gates — get the local card above

More details

Lima Pass is a contactless smart card (tap on the turnstile reader) but it must be purchased and loaded with cash/balance first —

it isn't an open-loop system that reads foreign bank cards.

Authorities are rolling out an interoperable card (TIT) in 2026 to unify Metropolitano, Metro de Lima and corridor buses, but this is still card-based.
