2016 is set to be an important year for
flamengo park as
is scheduled to host some olympic
events including athletics and road
cycling. the paralympics are also taking place there, incorporating
track and field and the marathon races.
while the park is
not considered to be safe for visitors at night, the early mornings are
a completely
different story, as hundreds of health conscious runners and
cyclists take advantage of the empty lanes and fresh sea air.
