Both the 20th Warsaw Half Marathon and the 48th Warsaw Marathon have been awarded the prestigious Elite Label by World Athletics (formerly IAAF). 🏆
This is an official, international confirmation that our races meet the highest global standards. The Elite Label is held by events such as the marathons in Seville and Barcelona, as well as the Berlin Half Marathon.
What makes this even bigger is that Warsaw is the first city in Poland whose half-marathon and marathon can both claim this distinction. 😎
This is another clear, measurable, and well-documented proof of our growth — both as an organization and as a sports market. Thanks to recognitions like this, the international visibility and prestige grow not only for our events, but above all for Warsaw and Poland — adds Marek Tronina, President of the Warsaw Marathon Foundation.
Elite is a commitment and we work on living up to it all year round. 💪
