About this race
The Metropolmarathon is Fürth's running event in Bavaria, held annually since 2007. It includes a full 42.195 km marathon, a relay marathon, a half marathon, a 10 km run, and a 10 km Nordic walking option, alongside shorter youth and kids' races. It originated as the Jahrtausendmarathon for Fürth's 1000th anniversary, adopting the Metropolmarathon name the following year.
The traditional marathon route begins and ends at Fürther Freiheit, passing through Fürth districts like Ronhof, Stadeln, Vach, Burgfarrnbach, Dambach, and the Südstadt. The course is largely rolling and winding, featuring short field paths and cobblestones in the city center near the finish. The half marathon shares a similar layout. Recent events connect Fürth with Nuremberg, alternating the direction each year. The slogan "Vom Kleeblatt zur Kaiserburg!" signifies the route from Fürth's cloverleaf symbol to Nuremberg's imperial castle. Approximately 9,000 runners and 600 volunteers participate, establishing it as a significant regional race.
