The half marathon is set to start in the morning from Paseo de la Castellana, with runners moving through Madrid’s iconic streets before finishing in the heart of the city on Paseo de Recoletos.

Known for its rolling profile, the Madrid Half Marathon presents a moderate challenge, with early undulations requiring controlled pacing before more runnable sections later in the race. The combination of elevation changes and city-center turns makes it a tactical event, rewarding athletes who manage effort carefully over the 21.1-kilometer distance.
