Utena Hippodrome Marathon

VII Utenos Hipodromo maratonas 2026 is an autumn race day held at the Utena Hippodrome (Užpalių g. 97, Utena) on October 3, 2026. The program is built like a compact festival of distances: marathon and half marathon in the morning, mid-distances at midday, then shorter community runs and kids/family races in the afternoon — finishing with awards across categories and team nominations.

Runners can choose from 42.2 km, 21.1 km, 10 km, 5 km, 3 km, plus a 1 km Family Run and a 400 m Kids Run. The event also offers a virtual run option (1–42.2 km) completed between Oct 1–3. Time limits are clearly set (up to 6 hours for the marathon), and there’s a course support point with water and snacks. Awards include medals for finishers within the time limit and cups/prizes for top placements, plus team and special nominations (largest team, oldest participant, most original costume).
