Surrounded by history and great times, each race at this destination offers different emotions. This year, RunCzech (www.runczech.com), the company in charge of organizing these events, has scheduled:

Prague Volkswagen Marathon (5/6 May)

The “Volkswagen Prague Marathon” has become an essential race in the world race circuit. An exceptionally beautiful route and a wonderfully managed event, from the moment you visit the site to register until the last note of the “Prague Marathon Music Festival.” Everything is done to make this event totally delightful for the runners. Because all those who have the will to put in this type of effort need a very special treatment.

Karlovy Vary Half Marathon (May 19)

Karlovy Vary which is partly cinema center and partly seaside resort, is also the site of one of the most splendid half marathons in the world. Twenty-one miles to run and strengthen the spirit.

České Budějovice Half Marathon (June 5)

The “Mattoni České Budějovice Half Marathon” is perhaps the most communal race in the world. The beautiful and compact Main Square is designed for people to be together. The wanderings through the medieval streets make runners feel like they’re going through a fairy tale. The support of the crowd makes you feel the hero of your own adventure.

Olomouc Half Marathon (June 23)

The 9th “Mattoni Olomouc Half Marathon” takes place in the ancient capital of Moravia. Over 6000 aisles run the route of its Baroque architecture and sun-drenched vineyards in one of Europe’s finest wine producing regions. It is an experience comparable only to the heat with which the runners are received in this place.

Prague Grand Prix (8 September)

This event allows runners to experience the experience of a Prague in the afternoon, when the city is in its most magical and mysterious moment. The female race celebrates the power and beauty of fraternity. The next 10km race equals runners of all levels in an afternoon of fun and camaraderie during the beautiful Czech afternoon.
