Split Marathon Moves to Autumn in 2021

The Split Marathon, a prominent sporting event in the city of Split, Croatia, has shifted its date from February to September 26, 2021. This change was announced by Kristijan Sindik, the president of the Organizing Committee, through the official Split Marathon Facebook page.

Once held in February, the event attracts thousands of participants for the full marathon and half marathon, and the new date aims to avoid unbearable heat during the run. The marathon itself features around 800 competitors, with the half marathon attracting approximately 2500 runners.

To make it a memorable experience for everyone involved, including recreational runners, children, organizers, track security, police, and other city services, the Split Marathon brings together around 4000 people in total.
