Volkswagen Prague International Marathon

10 May 2009

Start Time : 9:00am
Number of Places : Unlimited


The Volkswagen Prague International Marathon is considered, by many, to be one of the top 10 marathons and invariably contains a mumber of high profile runners. Winding through the streets of one of Europe's most beautiful cities it is a spectacular race. And with a mainly flat course there is the chance for a personal best.


Prague Marathon Route
The Prague Marathon takes all of this Bohemian city, the real Prague and the tourist attractions. Often preceding the Prague Spring Music Festival, it is a very musical event.

The race starts at Pařížska Street (Old Town Square). After a leisurely start, enforced by narrow streets, runners cross the Charles Bridge. It is here that the runners are first treated to the sounds of Czech musicians. The race snakes through the delightful Old Town for most of the race skirtng into some of the more modern areas of Prague, crossing the Vlatava river on several occasions. After 26 miles the race ultimately ends, close to the riverside, at the Rudolfinum Concert Hall.
