The ASML Marathon Eindhoven is a city marathon in the south of the Netherlands, held on the Sunday of a two-day running weekend in the second weekend of October. Golazo organises it, and the 42nd edition was run in 2026. The marathon starts on Veldmaarschalk Montgomerylaan and finishes on Vestdijk in the city centre, and the organisers say the course is officially measured. On the way, runners pass the Philips Stadion, the Evoluon and the High Tech Campus before going through the inner city, where large crowds line the streets. In 2026 the marathon started in waves between 9:30 and 10:00, after the quarter marathon, and the half marathon started from 11:30. The finish on Vestdijk closed at 15:45. The weekend also has a half marathon, a quarter marathon of 10.55 km, a 5 km City Run, a marathon relay and children's runs. The marathon has a six-hour limit. It has doubled as the Belgian marathon championship in recent years, and the 2026 race was the tenth time Eindhoven hosted that title. The organisers list course records of 2:04:52 for men, set by Kenneth Kipkemoi in 2023, and 2:22:47 for women, set by Paskalia Chepkogei in 2022.

The Race
Eindhoven
The marathon returned to Eindhoven in 1982 to mark the city's 750th anniversary. It was intended as a single event, but at the runners' request it became a recurring one. Until 1990 it was held in even-numbered years, and after that every year.
On 8 October 2023 Kenneth Kipkemoi of Kenya won the 39th edition in 2:04:52, improving the course record from 2012 by more than 50 seconds. Belgium's Chloé Herbiet was the first woman in 2:27:54 and became Belgian champion.
