The start and finish area will be at Heroes' Square, from where a fast, straight section awaits the competitors along Andrássy Avenue. In the end, we chose this 10-kilometre course, which will be completed by the world's best in four laps in August," said Éva Petrik, competition director of the 2023 World Championships in Budapest, former Hungarian champion marathoner. There were and are many possibilities in this city as to how to draw a route for a marathon. From the beginning we considered about 30 possible options. "We have found a really good route for marathoners. On the closing weekend of the World Championships, the world's best women's marathon athletes will take to the streets of Budapest on Saturday 26 August, followed a day later by the men's race. It will be no different at the biggest sporting event in Hungary's history, the World Athletics Championships Budapest 23, where superheroes will take centre stage. Everyday heroes from all over the world come to these events, who, as well as overcoming their own limits, can admire the fabulous city centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, along the way.
The Budapest Marathon, the Budapest Half Marathon and the Vivicittá City Run attract nearly 100,000 people every year.
Budapest has become a trusted host for mass running events over the last decades.
