Croatia's Signature Race
Held every second Sunday in October, the Zagreb Marathon is Croatia's most established running event, drawing more than 3,000 runners to the capital for marathon, half marathon and 10km distances.
Real Qualifying Weight
Genuine World Marathon Majors Qualifier and Boston Qualifying race status puts Zagreb on the same qualifying pathway as far more expensive and crowded European races — without the ballot odds.
Daily Chore Take
Most visitors think "Croatia" and picture the coast — Zagreb offers a genuinely different, historic-capital marathon experience with real qualifying credibility attached.
