Sydney Marathon

Sunday September 15th, 2024
Sidney, AU
Distance: Marathon · Half Marathon · 10K · 3.5
Offical Race Web Site

The Sydney Marathon is a marathon held annually in Sydney, Australia. The event was first held in 2001 as a legacy of the 2000 Summer Olympics, which were held in Sydney. In addition to the marathon, a half marathon, 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) "Bridge Run", and a 3.5 kilometres (2.2 mi) "Family Fun Run" are also held under the banner of the Sydney Running Festival. The marathon course record is held by Gebo Gameda of Kenya, who completed the race in 2 hours, 11 minutes and 18 seconds in 2014. The fastest woman is the Ethiopian Biruktayit Degefa, who ran a time of 2 hours, 32 minutes and 46 seconds in 2013.

Introduced in 2001, the Sydney Marathon followed the same course as the marathon during the 2000 Summer Olympics the previous year. During that first year, the women's race was won by Krishna Stanton, who had never run a marathon before, and was doing the event as a result of a challenge from a friend. The Bridge Run was added in 2002, initially as a 10 km event, before being reduced to 9 km in 2005. The marathon and half marathon both finish at the Sydney Opera House, while the shorter runs end at the Royal Botanic Gardens. In 2010 the marathon course was changed to flatten it out which, according to the organisers, makes it "a faster, more scenic and spectator friendly course."

In 2014 the marathon was awarded a Silver Label Road Race by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), then in December 2014 the race was awarded a Gold Label Road Race in time for the 2015 race. As of 2014, nine runners have competed in every Sydney Marathon, and have been dubbed "Blue Line Legends".

Trento Half Marathon

Sunday October 5th, 2025
Trento, Italy
Distance: Half Marathon
Offical Race Web Site

In Trento we have joined forces by gathering together the city’s biggest running events to give birth to the “Trento Running Festival”.

The Festival is a whole weekend dedicated to running for people of all levels: top runners, amateurs, families and the young. The event offers the opportunity to meet and watch top athletes trying to beat their record at the half marathon. But why not run just for the fun of it and discover a city with a thousand surprises?

In Trento history is part of the action. The Giro al Sas is one of the oldest races in Europe. It was created in 1907 to honour the patron saint of the city and this year celebrates its 71st edition. It is run on Saturday evening on a 1km lap completed 10 times. Spectators get the chance to see the champions in action repeatedly — some of the best athletes in the world have come to race here, from Stefano Baldini to Paul Tergat and Kenesisa Bekele. The 2017 edition will not disappoint.

Designing a race for champions is difficult but putting one on that can fully satisfy amateurs is even more challenging. The race is designed to give runners the chance for fast times but also to enjoy the sparkling scenery of the city. Among the sights are the basilica of St Maria Maggiore, where the Third Session of the Council of Trento was held, the towers, the Buonconsiglio castle and the passage in front of the MUSE designed by Renzo Piano.

Trento Half Marathon

The course of Trento Half Marathon develops on a single tour entirely in the urban area of the city of Trento.

As the valley floor of the Adige River is wide, the race course is not rough, the only ascent is 300m long with a slope of 2%, the rest of the track has imperceptible slopes.

The route is therefore particularly fast and suitable for those who want a chronometric check in accordance with their physical form

The home of Sofia Marathon was founded thousands of years ago and today it continues to develop as the country’s cultural and economic centre. Sofia is Bulgaria’s capital and one of the oldest capitals in Eastern Europe.

Sofia has been settled for many millennia. In honour of its hot springs, which you should visit after running the marathon in Sofia, in the 8th centuryBCE the Thracian tribes settled here and gave the city its first name Serdika or Serdonpolis. Serdika was the favourite city of Constantine the Great (reign 306-337), who said: “Serdika is my Rome”.

The founder of the Empire State marathon was my friend Brian Collins. I was the Race announcer for this event, and many other events Brian produced. Brian was more than a founder of this race, , he was a gifted athlete having completed numerous marathons (Boston), and Ironman races! He was my training partner and truly missed by many! We spent many days and nights talking and planning for this event, his dream lives on...Ray

This event is in its 11 th year, not 7 th as stated. I knowbecause my son , Brian Collins, was the founder of this race, but died in 2015. The race used to be a three day event with an Expo that hosted speakers , elite athletes, a fashion show and at least 35 vendors. On race day during the first year over 1000 marathoners lined up for that inaugural event. The half marathon was a bit more popular with between 1400-1500 runners with their toe to the line. Those were the days!
