The Johannesburg Marathon takes runners through the heart of South Africa's economic hub, featuring a mix of urban and suburban landscapes at high altitude (1600-1800m). The course traverses through downtown Johannesburg, the leafy northern suburbs, and riverside parks, with rolling hills throughout that keep the race engaging. Starting and finishing in the vibrant city center, the route showcases the city's development and natural beauty.
Typiskt klimat för loppets månad – en uppskattning, inte en prognos eller mätning från loppdagen
August falls in South Africa's late winter/early spring with cool, dry mornings and mild daytime temperatures. Runners benefit from low humidity and minimal rainfall, though the high altitude (1600m+) may affect breathing for those unaccustomed to elevation.
The Race
Johannesburg
The Johannesburg Marathon was founded in 2000, during the golden age of mass-participation running. Now 26 years old, it has established itself as a beloved fixture in Johannesburg, growing from its early editions into a race with genuine character and loyal following.
The course record of 02:08:34, set by Ayele Abshero in 2015, speaks to what the Johannesburg Marathon offers elite athletes: a fast, honest course where serious times are achievable. The record has drawn increasingly competitive fields year after year.
