The Madrid Marathon starts at the iconic Plaza de Colón and winds through Madrid's historic neighborhoods and major landmarks, including the Royal Palace, Retiro Park, and Temple of Debod. The course features gently rolling terrain through the heart of Spain's capital, with minimal elevation gain making it accessible for most runners.
Spring weather in Madrid is generally pleasant with mild temperatures and low humidity. Occasional rain showers are possible, but sunny days are more common, making April an ideal month for marathon running.
The Race
Madrid
The Madrid Marathon was founded in 1982, during the golden age of mass-participation running. Now 44 years old, it has established itself as a beloved fixture in Madrid, growing from its early editions into a race with genuine character and loyal following.
The course record of 02:05:12, set by Stanley Kosgei in 2012, speaks to what the Madrid Marathon offers elite athletes: a fast, honest course where serious times are achievable. The record has drawn increasingly competitive fields year after year.
Runners come to the Madrid Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Madrid has a reputation as a PB factory, with the roads seemingly designed to keep your pace honest and your splits consistent from start to finish.
With 23,500 finishers and spectators lining the course deep, the Madrid Marathon generates an atmosphere that carries runners through the hard miles. The crowd support in Madrid is not polite applause — it's visceral, personal, and often the difference between hitting the wall and breaking through it.
