Marathon races near Gdańsk

Gdańsk By Sea And Saddle

Gdańsk hosts 8 Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals run between the sea and parks, and Reagan Park is the easy call for Z2 or a loose Saturday shakeout. Reagan Park has a 5 km lap for soft legs. The lap is 5 km, and the flow around the Motława keeps the city centre in your peripheral vision. The lap has sand, roots, and natural obstacles. Gdansk Run meets every Saturday from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM, and Energa Gdańsk Marathon 2026, Bieg Sw Dominika, Rungdn Hevelianum, and Rungdn Bastiony are the anchor races.

Locals ride the coast first, because the coastal cycling route from Gdańsk to Gdynia gives about 25 km of steady base miles beside Gdańsk Bay. The Sopot to Gdańsk section is over 15 km, and Tri-City cyclists use it for both training and getting around. The city has almost 600 km of bike paths, so Main Gdańsk, Low Town, Oliwa, and Sobieszewo Island all fit easy spins. The Oliwa Valley Route runs about 24 km and brings the better climbing feel. Góra Gradowa gives the sharp city punch for intervals. PolandByLocals rides from Chlebnicka 19/20, and Rowerowy Maraton Wisła works as the anchor event.

July and August are the warmest months, and locals use the long light for beach runs, coastal spins, and patient Z2 before the showers roll through. Summer in Gdańsk brings plenty of sunshine with heavy rain mixed in, while the yearly 1,700 hours of sunshine still make the city feel rideable and runnable. Spring starts in March cold and windy, then turns more useful for base miles. Autumn starts warm and usually sunny in September, then November gets cold, damp, and foggy. Winter lasts from December to March, and mean temperatures in January and February sit near or below 0°C, so locals move toward shorter loops, firmer plans, and snow-ready shoes or tyres.
