The Valencia Half Marathon covers 21.097 kilometers on asphalt through Valencia, Spain, typically held in late October. The start and finish lines are located on Avinguda dels Tarongers, within the university district shared by the Universitat Politècnica de València and the Universitat de València. This is a certified half-marathon course, recognized by AIMS/RFEA and listed on the international athletics calendar, with kilometer markers placed along the route.
The course navigates Valencia’s principal city streets, designed for rapid pacing. This attracts runners aiming for personal bests alongside those completing the half-marathon distance. Participation is open to bib holders aged 18 and above, covering both licensed and non-federated runners. International athletes must comply with RFEA and World Athletics regulations. Travel agencies offer race packages that include guaranteed entries, accommodation, expo transportation, group warm-ups, and pre-race pasta meals, catering to visiting participants as well as residents.
