Madrid marathon

The Madrid marathon is one of the largest European marathons. The Madrid Marathon has been taking place in late April each year since 1978 and will celebrate it's 45th anniverary whilst welcoming around 39,000 athletes to this year's event. The character of the event changed somewhat in 2011 with the addition of the Zurich Rock n Roll sponsorship, the first of this marathon series to take place outside of the United States, and transforming the event officially into the Zurich Rock 'n' Roll Running Series Madrid Marathon or in Spanish, Maraton de Rock n Roll Madrid.
 
In common with other events in the Rock n Roll series the marathon day now also includes a number of other races taking place concurrently, including a half marathon and a 10k race, making up an entire day of top level athletic entertainment. There will also be over 30 entertainment stages and stations located along the route for an incredible day!
