The MANN-FILTER Maratón de Zaragoza is a premier athletic event held in the historic city of Zaragoza, Spain. The race is renowned for its spectacular course that weaves through the city's rich history, passing the Ebro River and its iconic bridges, the Roman Walls, the Central Market, and the Plaza de España. Both the marathon and the 10K events culminate in a finish line at the world-famous Plaza del Pilar.
The 2026 edition offers two distinct distances catering to different levels of runners. The full marathon provides a 42-kilometer journey through the most picturesque parts of the city, while the 10K has been redesigned to be flat and exceptionally fast. This homologated 10K route features wider initial kilometers to improve the experience for participants aiming for a personal best in a central, urban setting.

Learn more about the host city, Zaragoza.
Zaragoza is the capital and largest city of Aragon in Spain, and one of Spain's five largest cities, but it is one of the least known outside of Spain. Founded on the river Ebro during the Roman Empire as Cesaraugusta, Zaragoza now holds a large cultural and architectural heritage attesting to 2,000 years of affluence and importance. The city is best known for its Basilica del Pilar, built to venerate the apparition of the Virgin Mary to Saint James in very early Christian times, which became a major marker of cultural identity for Christian Spain. The city was again put on the global map by the 2008 Expo, which left it with a whole new modern part developed further for various purposes after the exhibition closed.
