Recurring Half Marathon races near Vitoria-Gasteiz

Races that repeat — weekly, monthly or yearly

Flysch Trail Zumaia
SAT OCT 3
The Flysch Trail Zumaia is a trail running event held in Zumaia, on Spain's Basque coast. Participants can choose between a 14 km route and a 24 km route. The shorter race offers a straightforward way to enjoy the local trails, while the longer race is designed around the distinctive cliffs of the coastline. The 24 km course follows the high coastal cliffs for most of its length, with the terrain itself being the primary attraction, rather than urban environments or large venues. The event also directs spectators to optimal viewing spots, provides changing facilities, and shares practical travel and parking details for accessing Zumaia. Runners may use the occasion to explore the nearby Geoparkea area, with lodging and dining information available. The race documents its history through photo archives, news, and pre-event preparation sessions.
Maratón Internacional Ciudad de Logroño
SUN OCT 4
The Maratón Internacional Ciudad de Logroño is an urban race series in Logroño, the capital of La Rioja in northern Spain, offering marathon, half marathon, and 10K distances. The marathon begins at 09:00. Both the marathon and half marathon start from Paseo del Espolón, with all distances concluding back at Paseo de El Espolón. Having reached at least its twelfth edition and previously sold out, the event is more than a small local run. The course is designed for steady running, featuring long straights, wide avenues, a mostly flat profile, and only mild inclines. Runners will pass through Logroño's main neighborhoods, areas near the Ebro River, and city green spaces while remaining within the urban environment. The marathon has a 5-hour time limit, the half marathon allows 2 hours 30 minutes, and the 10K has a 1 hour 30 minute limit, accommodating both first-time distance runners and those aiming for a personal best.
Sorginen Lasterketa
SUN OCT 4
Sorginen Lasterketa is a mountain race starting and finishing in Plaza de Axpe, Axpe, Atxondo, Bizkaia, at 9:00 AM. This Basque trail event is compact yet steep, offering a 21 km race with approximately 1,750 metres of climbing and an 11.7 km option with about 890 metres of ascent. Registration is limited to 350 participants. The main race includes four aid stations, is rated medium-to-high difficulty, and has a five-hour time limit. The longer route ascends Anboto, a 1,331 m peak that defines the race's sharp mountain character. The shorter route reaches the Larrano area, around 980 m. The participants include both skilled mountain runners and regular trail runners. The 21 km race is part of the Durangal series. The event, now in its later editions, is a well-established fixture in the Basque trail running calendar, maintaining a community feel rather than a large-scale event atmosphere.
Rural Kutxa Semi-Marathon de San Sebastian
SUN OCT 4
The Rural Kutxa Semi-Marathon de San Sebastian is a 21 km road race held in San Sebastian, Guipuzcoa, within the Spanish Basque Country. It takes place in October, beginning at City Hall, and attracts approximately 5,000 participants, offering a large-city half marathon atmosphere without being an overwhelming event. The course remains entirely within the city limits, utilizing asphalt throughout, with no trail or rough terrain. Participants have 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete the race, emphasizing the need for training even for those focused on finishing. Ayad Lamdassem's course record of 1:02:48 indicates the high speed of the leading competitors.
Bilbao Night Running Fest
SAT OCT 17
The Bilbao Night Running Fest guides participants through Bilbao after dark, beginning at San Mamés and concluding at the Guggenheim. The event features two options: a 21K half marathon and the 10K Pirate Race, catering to those seeking a substantial city run or a brief evening challenge. The course follows a city circuit on major avenues, differing from a secluded out-and-back path. Pyrotechnics, live entertainment, and numerous onlookers contribute to a festive atmosphere, distinct from typical road races. The city's football stadium and art museum define the course's start and end points.
Eltxo Trail
SAT OCT 17
Eltxo Trail is a mountain race held in Orendain, a small town in Gipuzkoa, Basque Country. It features a 21 km half-marathon-style trail route and a shorter 7.3 km option, with mixed team categories available for both distances. The local council, Orendaingo Udala, organizes the event, which has scheduled afternoon starts for the 21 km and 7.3 km races. The routes traverse Orendain and the surrounding areas of Abaltzisketa, Gaintza, and Baliarrain, characterizing it as a rural Basque hill race. Previous editions featured 20 km and 5 km courses, indicating a consistent focus on mountain running with adjusted distances. A local market in the town center during the race offers participants and spectators a chance to engage with Orendain beyond the event itself.
Arrankudiaga-Zollo Trail Lasterketa
SAT OCT 24
Txara Trail
SAT OCT 24
Txara Trail is a mountain running event in Markina-Xemein, Bizkaia, offering two race distances: a 17.7 km “mountain half marathon” and the 10.5 km Txaramotx run. The longer race involves 1,150 m of climbing, making it much steeper than its distance suggests; the 10.5 km option includes 600 m of ascent. The longer race starts in the morning, followed shortly by the shorter race. Walkers begin earlier on the same 10.5 km and 17.7 km routes. The event is part of the Bizkaia running calendar, attracting trail runners in the Basque Country seeking a challenging day in the hills around Markina-Xemein. The event also accommodates non-runners through walking options on the same two distances. Prizes are locally focused: winners receive a Basque cap and baskets of local products, with cash awards for the top finishers in the longer race and local-product baskets for the first local finishers. Practical arrangements include parking, showers, and announced route adjustments near the start and finish areas.

About Half Marathon races in Vitoria-Gasteiz

Vitoria-Gasteiz Training Notes

Vitoria-Gasteiz hosts 17 Half Marathon races in 2026 within 80 km of the city centre — upcoming dates, recurring series, and other races nearby, all in one place.

Locals keep running close to the parks, with El Prado park as the easy social spot and Salburua park for a greener reset. The Sports Service of the Vitoria-Gasteiz City Council runs Sunday Quedadas deportivas, and the running sessions use El Prado park at 11:00 AM. The Sunday Quedadas deportivas fill the easy group slot for basic-level runners without fuss. Route names stay practical here, like polideportivo cabriana, aerobico, Poligono, vuelta corta a mendi, Miranda - Piscinas Lantaron, and vuelta de 3,5 km. The vuelta de 3,5 km route covers 76 km with 11 m of gain. The anchor targets are Maratón Martín Fiz 2026, Vitoria Night Run, Carrera de las Empresas, La Conquista de la Almendra, and Carrera de la Mujer de Vitoria.

Cyclists get a city built for steady base miles, with bike-path choice shaping the day more than any single named route in the brief. The city route calculator assigns a cycling difficulty level to each street based on bike path type and vehicle traffic. The Old Quarters add the punch, because their street steepness is part of the route calculation. Los Montes de Vitoria sit as the obvious place to think about climbing legs, BTT work, and harder Z2. The brief names no cycling club, so the race calendar carries the social pull. Prueba Ciclista Vitoria, Prueba Cicloturista Vitoria, Ironman Vitoria-Gasteiz, Marcha BTT Mercedes-Benz, and Los Montes de Vitoria work as anchor events.

May, June, July, August, September, and October are the clean training months here, with enough daylight for intervals before work and Z2 after. July and August are Spain’s hottest months, but Vitoria-Gasteiz still gets warm days with cool nights, so early runs and evening spins make sense. September generally gives the best cycling weather of the year, and October still keeps plenty of rhythm. Winters hit cooler than the lowland coastal areas, and the first snow falls in the mountains during November. Runners keep using El Prado park and Salburua park, while cyclists get pickier with wind, rain, and mountain plans.
