    Gothenburg – the city where running meets the good life

    Join us in Gothenburg – a charming coastal city where the sea, a sense of community and the buzz of a big city come together. Here you’ll find cosy neighbourhoods, salty breezes, green parks and a relaxed atmosphere that makes the city the perfect destination for a running weekend. When Göteborgsvarvet takes over the city, Gothenburg is transformed into one huge public celebration – and the race becomes so much more than just 21.1 kilometres.

    Our weekend trips to Gothenburg offer the perfect combination of running, experiences and camaraderie. Between training sessions and races, you can explore the city’s charming neighbourhoods, stroll along Avenyn or enjoy the view over the Göta älv. Gothenburg is a city where it’s easy to feel at home – with short distances, a vibrant city centre and the sea just round the corner.

    As well as Göteborgsvarvet, a city brimming with experiences awaits. Stroll through Haga and enjoy a classic Swedish fika, discover small shops and cosy cafés, take the tram out towards the sea, or settle down at an outdoor café and soak up the city’s laid-back atmosphere. For those looking to unwind, there’s Slottsskogen and several beautiful walking trails, whilst Gothenburg’s restaurants and market halls offer something to suit every taste.

    When race day arrives, the streets of Gothenburg are filled with runners, music and thousands of enthusiastic spectators. From the start at Slottsskogen, across the Älvsborgsbron and along the Göta älv to the finish line at Slottsskogsvallen, a course brimming with energy and experiences awaits. Göteborgsvarvet is as much a public festival as it is a running challenge.

    So why choose between exercise and fun, between performance and relaxation – when you can have it all in the same weekend?

    About the race

    Welcome to Göteborgsvarvet – one of the world’s largest half marathons and a real celebration for runners from all over the world. Here, the joy of running, a sense of community and Gothenburg’s unique energy come together. For one day, the city is transformed into an arena where hundreds of thousands of people gather to run, cheer and experience the special atmosphere that only Göteborgsvarvet can create. With a 21.1-kilometre route through Gothenburg’s streets, parks and harbour district, a running experience awaits that you’ll never forget.

The race starts on Margretebergsgatan, next to Slottsskogen, where you’ll quickly be swept up in the energy of the race. The route then takes you through Majorna and on towards Älvsborgsbron, where a magnificent view of Gothenburg and the Göta älv unfolds. On the other side of the bridge, the race continues through Eriksberg and Lindholmen, where the modern cityscape meets the old harbour district.

    All along the route, the course is lined with music, cheering crowds and enthusiastic Gothenburgers who do everything they can to spur the runners on. As you approach central Gothenburg, your heart rate rises even further. You’ll cross the Hisingsbron, amongst other landmarks, and make your way through the city centre before the final stretch of the race takes you back towards Slottsskogen. The final kilometres are packed with spectators, music and that feeling that the finish line is actually within reach.

    When you finally run into Slottsskogsvallen and cross the finish line, you’ll feel a sense of having achieved something great.

    Copyright Adidas Stockholm Marathon / Annica Nordlund

    Adidas Stockholm Marathon is more than a marathon – it is a 42.195-kilometre journey through one of the world’s most beautiful capital cities.

    From the moment you cross the start line in Östermalm, Stockholm becomes part of the race. The course takes you through lively neighbourhoods, along the waterfront, past historic landmarks and through some of the city’s most iconic areas before delivering one of the great marathon finishes: inside the historic Stockholm Olympic Stadium.

    A course made for sightseeing – and racing

    The course leads through Vasastan and Kungsholmen, along Stockholm’s beautiful waterfront and past the magnificent Stockholm City Hall. You will experience the cobbled history and architecture of Gamla Stan – Stockholm’s Old Town – with the Royal Palace nearby, the greenery of Djurgården, and the energy and character of Södermalm.

    The course brings you back towards Stockholm Olympic Stadium, built for the 1912 Olympic Games. You enter the historic arena and run the final metres on the track towards the finish line.

    Lisbon is a city that glistens in the sunshine, with pastel-coloured houses climbing up seven hills towards the River Tagus.

The city offers magnificent views, a sea breeze and a vibrant cultural scene – a place where every stroll feels like a journey of discovery.

    Lisbon is the city that captures your heart

    Lisbon is a city that captivates with its unique blend of history, culture and modern vibrancy. With its sunny coastal location on the Atlantic, the Portuguese capital offers a warm climate, friendly people and an atmosphere that keeps many visitors coming back time and time again.

    The soul of the city lies in its picturesque neighbourhoods: Alfama, where cobbled streets wind their way between whitewashed houses and the aroma of grilled fish wafts from small tavernas; Bairro Alto, with its lively nightlife and cosy bars; and Belém, home to some of Lisbon’s most iconic monuments, such as the Tower of Belém and the Jerónimos Monastery, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

    No visit to Lisbon is complete without a ride on the yellow No. 28 tram, which takes you up steep hills and through charming neighbourhoods overlooking the River Tagus. From the city’s many miradouros (viewpoints), you can enjoy panoramic views of red rooftops, winding streets and sparkling water.

    Lisbon is also a city for those who enjoy the finer things in life. Here, the melancholic strains of fado await you in small restaurants, pastéis de nata in traditional patisseries, and a cuisine that combines the delicacies of the sea with hearty, rustic flavours.

    For those who want to explore further, gems such as Sintra, with its fairytale palaces, and the seaside resorts of Cascais and Estoril are just a short journey away.

    In short, Lisbon is a city that has it all – history, culture, gastronomy and joy – all set against a backdrop of sunshine and sea breezes.

    About the race

    The Lisbon Marathon is a scenic and atmospheric marathon that attracts runners from all over the world every year to Portugal’s beautiful capital, Lisbon. The race is particularly renowned for its spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean and the River Tagus, where runners can experience a unique combination of coastal scenery and urban surroundings.

    The race starts in the coastal town of Cascais, just outside Lisbon, and then follows one of Europe’s most scenic marathon routes along the coast and the river towards the city centre. Along the way, runners pass iconic landmarks such as Belém with its historic monuments and continue along the waterfront with views of the impressive Ponte 25 de Abril bridge before crossing the finish line.

    The Lisbon Marathon is one of Portugal’s biggest running events and is usually held in October, when the weather offers mild temperatures and pleasant running conditions. This makes the race attractive to both elite runners and amateur runners who want to end the season on a high note.

    The course is relatively flat and fast, particularly along the long stretch of coastline, which offers good opportunities to achieve a personal best. At the same time, wind conditions from the sea may play a role and present an extra challenge for the participants.

    The organisation runs smoothly, with clearly marked refreshment stations and well-organised logistics along the entire course. Support from the spectators is slightly more concentrated in the central sections of the race, but the atmosphere is warm and encouraging, particularly as the runners approach the finish line.

    The Lisbon Marathon is ideal for both runners looking to set personal bests and those who want to combine a marathon experience with beautiful scenery and a unique run along the Atlantic coast.

    Honolulu Marathon – The Dream Trip

    Pre-registration is now open for this winter’s big adventure! Experience three iconic destinations in one trip: San Francisco, Honolulu and Los Angeles.

    San Francisco

    We start our journey in charming San Francisco – the city of steep hills, unique blend of Victorian elegance and modern architecture, and stunning Pacific Ocean location. Classic sights such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, the cable cars, the Transamerica Pyramid, Coit Tower and Chinatown await you.

    San Francisco offers a rich variety of restaurants, culture and shopping and is considered by many to be the most charming city in the USA.

    City tour with visit to Muir Woods included.

    Honolulu

    The journey continues to tropical Oahu, Hawaii’s most famous island and home to the bustling capital Honolulu. Here you’ll find world-famous Waikiki Beach, Ala Moana – one of the world’s largest shopping centres, and the International Market Place, perfect for those who want to experience the local market pulse.

    A visit to Pearl Harbor is highly recommended – a historic site that provides a powerful insight into the events that changed world history.

    Excursions in Honolulu can be booked as an option.

    Honolulu Marathon 13 December

    Imagine standing on the start line at sunrise, surrounded by palm trees, sea breezes and the scent of tropical flowers. Ahead of you lies 42.195 kilometres of pure running pleasure – along golden beaches, through swaying palm trees and past majestic volcanoes. This is the Honolulu Marathon – one of the most spectacular and atmospheric races in the world! The race attracts around 20 000 runners and is the 4th largest marathon in the USA.

    Unlike many other marathons, there is no maximum time – here you run, jog or walk at your own pace. This makes the Honolulu Marathon the perfect race for both beginners and experienced runners who want to combine training, adventure and a holiday in one of the world’s most beautiful places.

    The start is early in the morning in the centre of Honolulu, when the city is still bathed in dawn light. The course winds along Waikiki Beach, up the Diamond Head crater and along the ocean with an ever-present view of the turquoise Pacific. The crowd cheers, music plays and the atmosphere is something you’ll never forget.

    After the finish, a medal, tropical fruits, palm trees and maybe a swim in the sea await you – you’ve earned it!

    The Honolulu Marathon is more than a race – it’s an experience of a lifetime. A chance to run in paradise, feel the community and create memories that last forever.

    Los Angeles

    We end our journey in vibrant Los Angeles – the city where the sun always shines and dreams come true. Here you can enjoy a morning run along Venice Beach, celebrity spotting in Beverly Hills, shopping in Santa Monica and an unforgettable film experience in Hollywood and at Universal Studios.

    Los Angeles is the centre of film, music and popular culture and offers the perfect ending to this unique journey.

    City tour including entrance to Universal Studios included.

    About the race

    This race is a loop along the southeast coast of Oahu, partly with a great sea view. The course is flat and easy but a bit hilly towards the end.


    There are around 30,000 runners taking part, most of them Japanese. The race starts as early as 05.00 in the morning in the balmy, pitch black and tropical morning. You know when the race has started when the sky is suddenly lit up by a colourful firework display! It’s great to run, but it’s not very fast. One of the reasons is that a large number of your fellow competitors are Japanese and they are not here to run fast but to finish. Accessibility is poor to begin with. So don’t expect a great time or a new personal best. But the heat, feared by many, is not particularly difficult. The sun doesn’t rise until around seven o’clock and it rarely gets warmer than about 25 degrees.

    There are 16 hydration stations along the course, the first after 3.5 km. Water and sports drinks are served.

    Start to the Park 10 km
    New race for this year replacing the “Mayors walk”. 10 km race with timing. The race starts at the same time as the Marathon and runs the first 10 km of the marathon course. Finish in Pakiolani Park (same finish as Marathon).

    Expo:
    Convention Center, 1801 Kalakaua Avenue in Waikiki near the large Ala Moana shopping centre.

    Distances: Marathon and 10 km
    Number of participants: 20 000
    Start time: 05.00
    Maximum time: None
    Medal/T-shirt: Yes/Yes
    Timing with chip: Yes
    Pasta party: Yes
    Character of the race: Hilly turnaround course.
    Average temperature: At the start 18 degrees, at 10.00, about 24 degrees

    Beaujolais Wine Marathon (42/21/13 km)

    The joy of running, vineyards and a French party atmosphere

    The Beaujolais Marathon isn’t just a race – it’s a feast for body and soul. Together with Springtime and other wine enthusiasts, you are invited to a weekend where every step is taken in the name of wine and pleasure.

    This isn’t just any marathon – it’s a chance to run through some of France’s most scenic wine country, while enjoying local hospitality, wine tastings and an atmosphere filled with joy. Choose from several distances – 13, 21 or 42 km – and make every kilometre taste of France.

    Your trip starts on Thursday with a smooth transfer from Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport to your hotel, the Hotel Mercure Ici & Là, where you’ll check in and get ready for a great weekend. In the evening, you’ll be invited to a festive Beaujolais Nouveau party in the charming village of Lacenas – a perfect start to your wine journey!

    Friday starts with an invigorating morning jog, and with the day to discover the charming village of Villefranche. Today you can also take the opportunity to visit ParcExpo to pick up your licence plate. Another nice tip is to take the train into the beautiful city of Lyon, stroll around the old town and taste delicious pastries and chocolates. In the evening, we will gather for a lovely Pasta Party and load up for the marathon.

    Saturday is the highlight! Run the legendary marathon starting in the beautiful village of Fleurie, or 21 or 13 km in and around Villefranche sur Saône. After the race, enjoy the Beaujolais Night festivities in Villefranche, with food, wine and live music.

    Sunday takes us to the picturesque village of Romanèche-Thorins for a visit to the Hameau Duboeuf and a delicious lunch. After this we end the journey with a transfer back to the airport.

    A perfect mix of running, wine and culture – join Springtime and experience the Beaujolais Marathon in the best way!

    About the race

    The race takes you through the rolling countryside of Beaujolais, an area known for its picturesque vineyards and charming villages. Starting in the historic town of Fleurie, the course winds through the vineyards where the autumn colours provide a magnificent backdrop. Finish in Villefranche-sur-Saône. The beautiful scenery, old stone houses and lively crowds create an atmosphere that makes every kilometre a pleasure.

    One of the most unique aspects of the Beaujolais Marathon is the gastronomic element. Instead of the usual sports drinks and energy gels, runners are treated to wine tastings and local specialities at several stations along the course. Take a break and enjoy a glass of the region’s famous Beaujolais Nouveau, along with cheese, charcuterie and other delicacies.

    Carnival atmosphere and the joy of running

    The Beaujolais Marathon is as much about the experience as the race itself. Many runners take part in fancy dress, and along the course you’ll be greeted by music, dancing and cheers from the crowd and fellow runners. The atmosphere is relaxed and festive, allowing even those who don’t usually run marathons to enjoy the race without the pressure of performance.

    Several distances for all levels

    Whether you’re an experienced marathon runner or a beginner, there’s a distance to suit you. In addition to the classic marathon, half marathons and shorter distances are also offered, so that more people can take part in this unique running festival.

    An unforgettable finish and celebration

    After the finish, there is a big party where runners and spectators gather to celebrate the day’s achievements. Food, wine and music are served in an atmosphere more reminiscent of a local festival than a sports competition. For many participants, this is one of the highlights of the event, where friendship and community are at the centre.

    When and where?

    The Beaujolais Marathon takes place every year in November, a perfect time when the wine year reaches its peak and the long-awaited Beaujolais Nouveau is officially launched. The race starts in Villefranche-sur-Saône, about 20 miles north of Lyon, making it easy to get here from both France and the rest of Europe.

    Sign up and experience running in a new way

    Do you want to combine running with gastronomy, culture and an unbeatable atmosphere? The Beaujolais Marathon is more than a race – it’s a feast for the senses and an experience you won’t soon forget. Whether you run for pleasure, for the challenge or to share a unique experience with friends, this is a marathon that really stands out.

    Secure your place and be part of this spectacular running party!

    Immerse yourself in a hiker’s paradise and enjoy a wonderfully unique experience, unlike anything you’ve experienced before. The turquoise waters, beautiful glaciers, imposing granite horns and breathtaking landscapes of this eighth wonder of the world are truly humbling.

    What else can you expect? Amazing wildlife watching in Torres del Paine – see majestic condors soaring above you, spot foxes, huemul (Andean deer) and guanacos along the way. And if you’re patient and wait patiently, you might even be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the shy mountain lion!
