The Seoul Marathon features a scenic out-and-back course along the Han River Park (Hangang Park), one of Seoul's most picturesque waterfront areas. The route is predominantly flat with minimal elevation change, making it ideal for runners seeking fast times. The course passes through multiple parks and cultural districts, offering views of Seoul's skyline and historic landmarks.
Early spring conditions with mild temperatures and low humidity. Runners should expect cool mornings with potential light rain showers, but overall pleasant racing conditions.
The Race
Seoul
Founded in 1931, the Seoul Marathon has been a fixture of the Seoul sporting calendar for over 9 decades. What started as a modest local race has grown into an event that draws runners from around the world to South Korea's roads.
Runners come to the Seoul Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Seoul 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.
Getting into the Seoul Marathon is a race before the race. The entry lottery draws far more applicants than available spots, and the notification email — accepted or rejected — has become an annual ritual that defines the running calendars of thousands.
With 32,000 finishers and spectators lining the course deep, the Seoul Marathon generates an atmosphere that carries runners through the hard miles. The crowd support in Seoul is not polite applause — it's visceral, personal, and often the difference between hitting the wall and breaking through it.
