Race Information

Be a part of the Nykredit Copenhagen Marathon and experience the scenic city of Copenhagen on Sunday May 20 2012. The course will start and finish from Islands Brygge and combine the best from previous years with new paths.

A traffic-free course
The traffic-free course is improved and easier and faster to run. The course will give the runners and spectators a chance to meet more than once, and it takes you by numerous historic sights and landmarks in Copenhagen.

The Pace setters
As a special service Copenhagen Marathon gives runners an opportunity to keep a steady pace throughout the race by following one of the many pace setters. This way contestants can join the group that runs a pace corresponding to their desired finish time. Runners can meet the pace setters personally at the Sports Expo before the race or every Sunday at Sparta’s free training sessions.

Medical and first aid
You will be able to get first aid at all hydration stations and we also have a number of mobile doctors.

Spectator-friendly course
The course offers ample possibilities for spectators to cheer on their family and friends. Cosy cafés along the course will enable you to enjoy a good meal and drinks while you sit back and watch the runners pass by.
