31. Fulda Marathon 2026

The Fulda Marathon, held in Fulda, Germany, features a half marathon and a 5 km City Run. By its thirtieth edition, the event attracted university teams and individual runners, with one university group alone fielding 27 half-marathoners and four City Run participants. The half-marathon course for the anniversary edition started with a stadium lap, followed by two circuits through Fulda-Auen and the city center, concluding back at the stadium. A peculiar occurrence that edition involved several runners finishing slightly short of 21.1 km, prompting some to complete additional stadium laps. Results indicated a strong presence of local clubs and universities, with team rankings in the women's half marathon, mixed half marathon, and 5 km City Run, alongside swift individual performances like Professor Dr. Matthias Friedrich's 1:15:56 half marathon.
