Every destination marathon in one catalogue: the confirmed date, the race-week timetable and the course measured off open survey data, with 3D flyover films of the route.https://www.marathontrip.com/enhttps://www.marathontrip.com/news/marathon-domains-that-are-not-the-race/https://www.marathontrip.com/news/marathon-domains-that-are-not-the-race/Search a race by name and you often land on a domain its organiser stopped paying for. Sixteen of them, opened on 15 September 2026, now serve casinos, betting tips, a London gym, a shoe shop and a World of Warcraft gold guide. Here is the list, and how to tell a real organiser page from an old one.Tue, 15 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTdispatchentriessafetyhttps://www.marathontrip.com/news/istanbul-marathon-official-website/https://www.marathontrip.com/news/istanbul-marathon-official-website/The domain most links still point at, istanbulmarathon.org, is no longer the organiser's - it redirects somewhere else and its security certificate does not validate. The organiser's own site is maraton.istanbul. The 48th edition is Sunday 1 November 2026, and the title sponsor has changed.Sun, 13 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTdispatchistanbulentrieshttps://www.marathontrip.com/news/paris-marathon-new-organiser-2027/https://www.marathontrip.com/news/paris-marathon-new-organiser-2027/A.S.O. ran the race for twenty-eight years and lost the city's concession to Cadence Running United. The old schneiderelectricparismarathon.com now returns a server error on every page, the race is the ASICS Marathon de Paris, and the 2027 date is Sunday 4 April - not the 11 April several listings still carry.Sun, 13 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTdispatchparisentrieshttps://www.marathontrip.com/news/tokyo-marathon-10-7km-dropped-2027/https://www.marathontrip.com/news/tokyo-marathon-10-7km-dropped-2027/The 2027 race guideline lists two events and the 10.7 km is not one of them. The organiser's own wording is that it "has been superseded by the marathon", alongside a new para-athlete marathon division and new entry categories for runners with disabilities. Race day is Sunday 7 March 2027.Sun, 13 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTdispatchtokyoentrieshttps://www.marathontrip.com/notes/raw-elevation-lies-in-cities/https://www.marathontrip.com/notes/raw-elevation-lies-in-cities/The Berlin course reads 197 m of climb on a raw global elevation model, 115 m on a bare-earth one, 68 m smoothed over 200 m and 35.9 m smoothed over a kilometre. Same course, same day. We filed one of those figures under the wrong window ourselves, and a schema caught it before a film did.Sun, 06 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTnoteelevationdataberlinhttps://www.marathontrip.com/notes/flat-is-its-own-trap/https://www.marathontrip.com/notes/flat-is-its-own-trap/Thirteen world records have been set in Berlin and almost every explanation credits the flatness. The flatness is real and it is not the reason. The reason is where the corners fall - 21 of 44 before halfway, none of them a hairpin - and that is also what makes it dangerous.Sat, 05 Sep 2026 00:00:00 GMTnoteberlincoursepacing
