European Marathon Classics

They say you can read a city’s entire history through its streets. The 48th Maraton Warszawski route isn't just a race course; it's a 42.195 km journey through time.

From the resilient, historic heartbeat of the Old Town, straight into the sleek, towering skyline of a modern European capital. The optimized route is flat, fiercely fast, and engineered for personal bests. But more importantly, it is a stage set for unforgettable emotions.

The streets of Warsaw are waiting to become part of your legacy. 🏅🌍

🫵 Za tymi danymi kryje się coś znacznie ważniejszego – 10 tysięcy historii, marzeń, wyzwań i decyzji o podjęciu niełatwego, ale pięknego celu. Dziękujemy za zaufanie, którym obdarzacie naszą imprezę. Gratulujemy Wam pasji, odwagi i determinacji. To właśnie Wy tworzycie atmosferę Maratonu Warszawskiego!

W świecie biegów ulicznych - zarówno w ramach polskiej Złota Seria 42, jak i europejskiego cyklu European Marathon Classics - taka liczba uczestników jest przede wszystkim wyznacznikiem ogromnego zaufania i jeszcze większej odpowiedzialności.

ℹ Pamiętajcie, że tego samego dnia, czyli w ostatnią niedzielę września, odbędzie się też Nice To Fit You Warszawska Dycha. Jeśli dystans 42,195 km nie jest jeszcze na Waszej liście celów, zapraszamy na 10 km ulicami stolicy.

Przed nami pracowite lato 🥹 Wy będziecie budować formę, pokonywać kolejne kilometry i przygotowywać się do swojego wielkiego dnia w Miasto Stołeczne Warszawa. My zrobimy wszystko, by we wrześniu czekało na Was święto biegania, którego długo nie zapomnicie!

A historic moment for European marathon running!

TCS London Marathon will become the first marathon in the world to be staged as a two-day event in 2027 (24-25 April), expanding to 100,000 participants across a single weekend. The change responds to record demand, with 1.33 million entries for the 2026 ballot.

Elite races will be split across two days, improving visibility across categories, while the event will anchor a full week of running in London - including the Running Show and Friday Night Lights 5K.

The scale of social impact continues to grow, with fundraising projected to exceed £150 million in 2027, building on £90 million raised in 2026.
For European Marathon Classics, this marks a clear signal of where marathon running is heading: greater scale, stronger access, and more shared experience across Europe.

Join the journey.

🗓️Lottery registration is now open: May 13 - June 3
🎟️Free to enter, one entry per person
👥Option to apply as a group (up to 3 runners)
📩Selected runners will have 48 hours to confirm their spot
