Medal

Here is the medal that our volunteers will put on your neck when you cross the finish line. Whether this will be the first one or another one in your collection, a medal for finishing  marathon distance will be a beautiful keepsake and will remind you of the best road race you have ever started in.

Change of route of the 39th PZU Warsaw Marathon and High Five Race

Due to the renovation works carried out in Warsaw, the routes of the 39th PZU Warsaw Marathon and the High Five Race have been changed. The Great Race will start from Plac Trzech Krzyży (Three Crosses Square) and not – as it was planned – from the Krakowskie Przedmieście street. In September the city is going to renovate Miodowa street, what in turn causes necessity to move the 5 km race to another route.
 
The Warsaw Marathon Foundation would like to inform all runners planning to take part in the 39th PZU Warsaw Marathon and High Five Race about the change of the routes. Changes have been made in connection with roads renovations planned by the city.
 
We invite you to check the routes of the races after necessary adjustments.
 
We assure you that change of starting line location of the Great Race and route of the High Five Race will not cause any complications for participants. New routes are equally attractive and offer the same level of difficulty so you can be sure that the competition will bring emotions and meet your expectations!

A famous Polish actor Bartlomiej Topa started together with Adrian, a kid in care of the Synapsis foundation. Topa entered the marathon relay competition, one of the companion events of the 38. PZU Warsaw Marathon. His participation was a part of #BiegamDobrze – the first project in Poland based on running for charity model. This action allows the participants to help six pre-chosen foundations. The aim of Bartek and Adrian was to support people with autism and raise money for the specialist treatments. As of yet #BiegamDobrze project managed to raise approximately one million polish zloty from its implementation.

Polish Olympic race walker Robert Korzeniowski was another celebrity to run the 38. PZU Warsaw Marathon. He participated in the 5K run, the other companion event of the Marathon.

5924 runners managed to beat the distance of 42 kilometres and 195 meters. Together with the people who took part in the companion events, the Warsaw Marathon managed to involve 9504 participants. The organisers prepared 30 special ‘cheer points’ on the track. Thousands of fans had used this opportunity to express their support. This included music bands, drummers, dancers and even the University choir.

We want to thank all of the participants and spectators of the 38. PZU Warsaw Marathon for unforgettable sports atmosphere. We thank You for being there. This year’s event was a success based on numerous runner’s passion, hard work of the much-optimistic participants and professional sponsors and business partners, who never let us down.
