In 2026, the Maratón de Montevideo returns with a full big-city experience, giving runners three distances to choose from: the classic marathon (42.195 km), the half marathon (21.097 km) and a 10 km road race, all run together on closed streets. The course starts near the Palacio Legislativo, then weaves through more than twenty neighbourhoods and long stretches of the coastal Rambla, offering bay views, urban landmarks and wide, runnable avenues. Smooth asphalt and gentle undulations make it a fast route, while its certification and reputation as a Boston and World Marathon Majors qualifier add extra appeal for time-chasers. Combined with Montevideo’s autumn climate and energetic local support along the route, the event blends performance potential with a relaxed, seaside capital vibe.
