40th SPAR Budapest Marathon

The 10 km is a nice round number. It’s a dream distance for some, a routine training for others. The longest in track athletics and one of the most popular distances in road races. It’s an achievable distance for anyone, a great introduction to the world of longer distances. Could this be your distance? Run 10 km along the Danube, make use of the track’s features, and aim for a personal best! Deal?

We’re just saying this much for now: two starts, two finishes, two finisher medals, two joys in one day. Are you in? 10+5km

The 5-kilometer distance is definitely your track if you’re just getting acquainted with the atmosphere of road races. Be a part of the country’s largest recreational sports event, run your first or fastest 5 kilometers of your life along the Danube riverbank! Along with your registration, you’ll receive the event’s t-shirt, and at the finish line, we’ll welcome you with a unique finisher’s medal.

Hungary’s largest sports event, a true bucket-list challenge for all those who have set their sights on conquering the queen of distances. Run a marathon in Budapest, along a beautiful and diverse route, alongside thousands of fellow runners! We warmly welcome you to our shorter distances as well, as during this two-day running festival, everyone can find a program that suits their preferences!

The 14-kilometer distance is achievable for anyone and it serves as the golden middle ground between the classic 10-kilometer and half marathon routes. If you feel that 21 kilometers might be too much but 10 kilometers is already getting boring, then look no further, because you’ve found the distance that suits you.

Marathon in pairs? Absolutely! Experience the marathon thrill as a team of two and run through the most beautiful parts of Budapest, all while soaking in the atmosphere of the classic distance! Gather a team from your family, friends, colleagues, and conquer the classic distance together.

The growing popularity of marathon running is undeniable. However, achieving this distance requires a lot of work, time, and effort. If you can breeze through a half marathon but still don’t feel ready for a full marathon, then a 30 km run is the perfect choice for you. Run a 30 km this year, and next year, you can conquer the 42.2 kilometers.

If you’re not yet ready for a full marathon, why not run a half? This year, for the second time since 1993, you’ll have the opportunity again. Run alongside the marathon field with others who are keeping a similar pace, marvel at the most beautiful parts of the capital city, and cross the finish line at the marathon finish arch! The distance is only half of the classic, but the experience is the same.
