Race Information
The 2026 25th Chungju Marathon is a premier regional running festival held amidst the beautiful natural scenery of Chungju. The event is scheduled to kick off at 7:30 AM on Saturday, June 20, 2026, starting from the Chungju Sports Complex.
The competition offers three distinct categories: the Half course, the 10km course, and the 5km course, allowing everyone from beginners to seasoned runners to participate according to their fitness levels. A total of 4,000 participants will be recruited on a first-come, first-served basis, with 1,000 slots for the Half, 2,000 for the 10km, and 1,000 for the 5km course, finalized upon completion of payment.
On the day of the event, there will be pre-event activities and an official opening ceremony, including a guided warm-up session to ensure runner safety. All finishers will be presented with a specially crafted completion medal and commemorative souvenirs. In particular, participants in the Half and 10km courses can easily check and print their official record certificates online after the race.
To ensure safe operations, on-site registration is strictly prohibited, and participation is only possible through prior online registration. Please note that for safety reasons, the Half course is restricted to individuals aged 18 and older. For more detailed inquiries regarding the marathon, you may contact the Chungju Marathon Secretariat located within the Chungju Sports Complex.
