The Malaga Marathon (Spanish: Maratón Málaga: 1  or Maratón de Málaga: 1 ) is an annual road-based marathon hosted by Málaga, Spain, since 2010. The marathon is a World Athletics Label Road Race, and was a member of the Association of International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS).
A half marathon is also held on the same day.: 2  The Malaga Half Marathon is a different race, generally held earlier in the year.




History


The inaugural event was held on 6 December 2010 as the "Maratón de Málaga". Organized by the Málaga City Council, the marathon was won by Spanish runners Juan Vázquez Sánchez and Blanca María Serrano, with finish times of 2:27:29 and 2:59:16, respectively. Sánchez won the race by over seven minutes. Swedish runner Sandr Halvarsson crossed the finish line before Serrano, but was disqualified for lack of evidence proving that she covered the whole course. Roughly 2,000 runners participated in the marathon. A disturbed man, who was tripping some of the participants, was quickly arrested. The marathon was held in conjunction with a 12 km (7.5 mi) race that used the first 12 km of the same course. The shorter race had 680 finishers.
The 2016 edition of the race was cancelled on the day of the race due to inclement weather.
The 2020 edition of the race was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, with all registrants given the option of transferring their entry to 2021, or obtaining a refund (minus management fees).
In 2023, Spanish runner Ricardo Rosado sacrificed what would have been a fifth-place finish to help a fellow runner who was struggling to complete the race. Although Rosado's act violated the rules of World Athletics, the marathon organizers stated that they would not disqualify Rosado, and also awarded him the 500 EUR that he would have earned had he finished fifth.
