The Race
Las Palmas
The Gran Canaria Marathon was founded in 1994, during the golden age of mass-participation running. Now 32 years old, it has established itself as a beloved fixture in Las Palmas, growing from its early editions into a race with genuine character and loyal following.
Runners come to the Gran Canaria Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Las Palmas 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.
