Finlandia Marathon

The Finlandia Marathon traverses the flat and fast Rantaraitti, which has been voted Finland's most beautiful. The competition centre is situated at Lutakonaukio and Jyväskylä Pavilion. The events available include the Marathon Relay (8 x 5 km), the Finlandia Walk (5 km), the 10K Evening Run (10 km), the Full Marathon (42.2 km) and the Half Marathon (21.1 km). The route of Rantaraitti is perfect for those running their first full marathon, as it is fast and has few sharp turns. It is also a great place for those who have previously completed a full marathon to improve their record. Furthermore, the start times and shared route of the full and half-marathons guarantee that runners will not be alone on their journey.
