In just five months, on April 6, 2025, participants will run through the streets of Gda\u0144sk over the royal distance of 42.195 km. The start and finish line will be right next to where we are now \u2013 Polsat Plus Arena Gda\u0144sk, and the route will lead through the city's most famous streets. The Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon will be the jewel in the crown of our running events. Its organization also fulfills our goals \u2013 promoting physical activity and culture among residents, building the city's prestige and sense of community.<\/em> - he said Piotr Borawski<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 <\/em>We had a short break in organizing the marathon, but we're back and will continue building the event's brand. It's my dream that in the future, the Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon will join the world's most important marathons. I should add that in addition to the main race on Sunday, there will also be side events on Saturday \u2013 a 5k run and children's races. Those who aren't yet well-prepared to run the 42.195 km distance will have the opportunity to participate in a four-person relay team, with each participant covering exactly \u00bc of a marathon. <\/em>- he said Adam Korol<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2013 This will be a great celebration of running, not only for professional athletes and runners who will be tackling this distance recreationally. We also want it to be a celebration for those who won't be participating in the race but will be an integral part of it \u2013 volunteers and fans. I'm inviting all volunteer organizations to collaborate, and Tricity residents to support the route, because nothing gives a runner wings like enthusiastic cheering. We also want to encourage young people to be physically active. By cheering or working with the race staff, they might catch the running bug and eventually compete in the Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon. <\/em>- he said Lukasz Bejm<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n SAFE PREPARATIONS FOR THE MARATHON<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The organizers are placing particular emphasis on safe and conscious preparation for the race. A 12-week training program, "Brooks, Be Ready!", will launch in January 2025. Its goal is to provide participants with the practical and theoretical knowledge necessary to complete the marathon. All registered runners will be able to take advantage of free training sessions. The sessions will be led by Marek Jaroszewski<\/strong>, Polish athlete, winner of, among others, the Houston Marathon in 2004.<\/p>\n\n\n\n GDA\u0143SK MARATHON 2025 PROGRAM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n April 5, 2025 (Saturday)<\/p>\n\n\n\n 12:00 \u2013 15:30 Race office \u2013 collection of starting packages for the Junior Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon<\/p>\n\n\n\n 12:00 \u2013 21:00 Race office \u2013 collection of starting packages<\/p>\n\n\n\n 12:00 \u2013 21:00 EXPO Zone<\/p>\n\n\n\n 16:30 \u2013 17:30 Junior Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon \u2013 races for children aged 1 \u2013 15<\/p>\n\n\n\n 17:30 Junior Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon Award Ceremony<\/p>\n\n\n\n April 6, 2025 (Sunday)<\/p>\n\n\n\n 7:30 a.m. \u2013 3:30 p.m. Opening hours of deposits for Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon participants<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8:20 Opening of the starting sectors<\/p>\n\n\n\n 8:40 Brooks Warm Up before the start of the Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon<\/p>\n\n\n\n 9:00 START of the Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 10:30 Opening of the starting sector for the 5 km Run<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10:40 Brooks Warm Up before the start of the 5 km Run<\/p>\n\n\n\n 10:55 START of the 5 km run<\/p>\n\n\n\n 11:45 5km Run Decoration<\/p>\n\n\n\n 14:45 Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon Award Ceremony<\/p>\n\n\n\n HISTORY AND STATISTICS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Energa Gda\u0144sk Marathon has a rich tradition dating back to May 2015.
