The Pražský maraton is a marathon running event in Prague, Czech Republic.

Held for the first time in 1963, it is the oldest marathon race in Bohemia. The Prague Marathon was established in 1995, thirty-two years after the Pražský maraton.

Starting on the athletics track of the Stadion PSK Olymp Praha, competitors run eight laps (8 x 5,274m) of a flat course through Stromovka, Prague's largest public park, located in the district of Praha 7 (Bubeneč) in the northern part of the city.

Also known as Královská obora (‘Royal Game Reserve’), Stromovka is an English-style park that is protected as a natural and cultural monument.

The 42.2km race is open to individual runners and relay teams of either four or eight runners.

Since 2021, the event also offers a half marathon option (four laps).

 

Update 2022:

The event has been cancelled and will not be held any more in the future.
