Bratislava Marathon
The Lowdown
Slovakia's flagship city marathon, held annually in Bratislava since the mid-2000s and title-sponsored as the "CSOB Bratislava Marathon" by CSOB bank. The 21st edition ran Saturday-Sunday, April 11-12, 2026 (Hobby Day plus Race Day), starting and finishing at the Eurovea shopping mall on Pribinova street and looping through the Stare Mesto, Ruzinov, and Petrzalka districts on a flat, paved city circuit with no significant elevation changes. Entry was capped at 1,500 marathon finishers, with tiered pricing rising as race day approached and a 30% discount for clients of CSOB's partner health insurer, Dovera. The same weekend also includes a half marathon, 10K, relay marathon, and shorter fun runs, tracked separately from this full-marathon record per 42cal convention. The 2026 edition has concluded; registration for a 2027 edition had not yet been announced as of this record's creation, so no future date is asserted.
