The marathon is a true celebration of runners. Completing the race on the royal distance of 42,195 m is a dream of many amateur runners. After a two-year break, the race on this distance will be held in Gdańsk again in 2025. The city of Gdańsk has unique pages in its history. It was here that World War II began on September 1, 1939, and it was here that the first independent, self-governing trade unions in Poland were established. Finally, it was in Gdańsk that the social changes that gave impetus to other European societies were initiated, and these societies toppled the Berlin Wall or restored independence to the Baltic republics – Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. That is why the seventh edition of the Gdańsk marathon will be held under the slogan Run in the city of freedom!”

We want as many people as possible to professionally prepare for the 42,195 m run. To this end, together with the Gdańsk Marathon technical partner, Brooks, we will conduct a training campaign Brooks Be ready!. The campaign will start 12 weeks before the start. Each person registered for the Gdańsk Marathon will receive a weekly training plan, as well as the opportunity to participate in running training with highly qualified coaching staff. In weeks 1-6, it will be one training session per week (Sunday), while in weeks 7-12, it will be two training sessions per week (Wednesday and Sunday). Detailed information on the meeting points for training will be provided to people registered for the Gdańsk Marathon.
