The Da Nang Marathon features a scenic coastal route that showcases Vietnam's central coast beauty, starting and finishing near My Khe Beach. Runners traverse the flat, well-maintained roads through the city center, along the Han River, and past local neighborhoods, offering cultural immersion alongside athletic challenge. The course is primarily shaded with some exposure to sun during the middle sections.
August is peak monsoon season in Da Nang with high heat, humidity, and significant rainfall risk. Runners should expect oppressive conditions with temperatures consistently in the low 30s Celsius and frequent afternoon thunderstorms.

The Race

Da Nang
Established in 2013, the Da Nang Marathon is now 13 years old. From its first edition in Da Nang, it has evolved into a race that reflects the character of its host region in Vietnam.
Runners come to the Da Nang Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Da Nang 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 average race-day temperatures around 32°C, the Da Nang Marathon is as much a battle against heat as against distance. DNF rates climb when the sun is out, and smart pacing in Da Nang's warmth separates experienced runners from those who went out too hard and paid for it.
