The Race
Leipzig
First held in 1908, the Leipzig Marathon is one of the oldest continuously held marathons in the world. Over more than a century of racing, it has survived world wars, economic crises, and pandemics — a testament to the enduring spirit of the running community in Leipzig.
Runners come to the Leipzig Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Leipzig 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.
For thousands of runners each year, the Leipzig Marathon is their first marathon. The combination of a forgiving course, generous time limits, and supportive crowds has earned this race a reputation as the place where marathon journeys begin. The first-timer energy on race morning is palpable.
