Course & Elevation

The Maratón de Santiago is the largest annual sporting event in Chile, held on a Sunday in autumn (May) in the capital, with a marathon, a half marathon and a 10K called the Corrida de Santiago. The 2027 edition is set for 16 May. The courses are measured and certified by World Athletics and AIMS, and the organisers say the exact route will be published on the official site and in the runner's manual. Since 2008 the start and finish have been in the Plaza de la Ciudadanía, in front of the Palacio de La Moneda, on the Alameda. The race began in 1990 as the Maratón Internacional de Santiago, and it was renamed Maratón de Santiago in 2007 when Adidas and the Chilean athletics federation joined the organiser Olimpo Producciones. The event moved to its Alameda start in 2008, when the organisation passed to Adidas, and Prokart has produced it since 2008. For 2027 there are 11,000 places in the marathon, 16,000 in the half marathon and 7,000 in the 10K, with entries open until 16 April 2027 or until places run out. The marathon costs 63,250 Chilean pesos for Chileans and residents.
