In Rio de Janeiro, Expect a classic carioca winter Sunday — sunny spells, a top of around 24°C and only a modest chance of a stray shower, so the beach is on.
The city’s real event today isn’t football but feet: the ASICS Golden Run returns to Rio for its 15th edition, drawing about 8,000 runners over 10km and half-marathon distances through the postcard stretch of the Zona Sul.
Markets shut the week on a high — the Ibovespa closed Friday up 2.97%, at 177,866.37 points, its best close since 14 May, while the dollar fell back into the R$5.10 range.
In one line: run-watch or beach in the morning, a free exhibition or two in the afternoon, and choro under the trees in Laranjeiras tonight.
