More than 30,000 runners from 95 nationalities lined up on Passeig de Picasso \u2014 a participation record that confirms the race as Spain\u2019s largest half marathon and the second largest in Europe.  This year\u2019s edition not only offered a flat, fast course through the heart and along the coast of Barcelona, it also delivered historic performances in both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s races.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A record\u2011breaking route and a festive atmosphere<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Barcelona course is renowned for its speed: it starts and finishes in Parc de la Ciutadella and winds past landmarks such as Pla\u00e7a Colom, the Arc de Triomf, Torre Gl\u00f2ries and the waterfront to the Port Ol\u00edmpic.  Thanks to its virtually flat profile and perfect weather (11\u00a0\u00b0C with no wind), the race attracts athletes aiming to improve their personal bests and chase records.  Organisers not only closed traffic along the 21.097\u00a0km route; they also installed 22 cheer zones and mobilised 650 volunteers and bands to create a continuous street party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/snaprace.app\/blog\/media-maraton-de-barcelona-2026-guia-completa-recorrido-y-consejos-para-corredores\/\">pre\u2011race guide on SnapRace<\/a> highlighted these logistics, recommending the metro to reach the start area and emphasising the need for a smart pacing plan.  The advice proved spot on: more than 40\u00a0percent of entrants were women \u2014 over 12,000 female runners \u2014 and 55\u00a0percent were under 35, showing that the Barcelona Half continues to renew its audience without losing its soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hagos\u00a0Gebrhiwet\u2019s dominant victory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the men\u2019s race, Ethiopia\u2019s <strong>Hagos\u00a0Gebrhiwet<\/strong> took command from the first kilometre and set a blistering tempo.  He hit 10\u00a0km in 27:30 and was never threatened by the chasing pack, stopping the clock at <strong>58:05<\/strong> \u2014 the fastest half\u2011marathon time in the world so far in 2026.  His run echoes Jacob\u00a0Kiplimo\u2019s world record the previous year, when the Ugandan star tore through the same course in 56:42.  Switzerland\u2019s <strong>Dominic\u00a0Lokinyomo\u00a0Lobalu<\/strong> finished second in 59:26 and France\u2019s <strong>Emmanuel\u00a0Roudolff<\/strong> took third in 59:37.  Kenya\u2019s Samwel\u00a0Mailu and Ethiopia\u2019s Hagos\u00a0Eyob\u00a0Gared rounded out the top five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1st\u00a0Hagos\u00a0Gebrhiwet (ETH)\u00a0\u2014 58:05<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>2nd\u00a0Dominic\u00a0Lokinyomo\u00a0Lobalu (SUI)\u00a0\u2014 59:26<\/li>\n<li>3rd\u00a0Emmanuel\u00a0Roudolff (FRA)\u00a0\u2014 59:37<\/li>\n<li>4th\u00a0Samwel\u00a0Mailu (KEN)\u00a0\u2014 59:42<\/li>\n<li>5th\u00a0Hagos\u00a0Eyob\u00a0Gared (ETH)\u00a0\u2014 59:42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loice\u00a0Chemnung breaks the course record as Weini\u00a0Kelati makes history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Kenya\u2019s <strong>Loice\u00a0Chemnung<\/strong> delivered a similar masterclass in the women\u2019s race.  At halfway she already had a half\u2011minute lead and crossed the line in a stunning <strong>1:04:01<\/strong>, slicing 10\u00a0seconds off the course record Joyciline\u00a0Jepkosgei set in 2025.  American <strong>Weini\u00a0Kelati<\/strong> finished runner\u2011up in <strong>1:06:04<\/strong>, lowering her own U.S. record by five seconds and confirming her rise as a world\u2011class road racer.  Ethiopia\u2019s <strong>Diniya\u00a0Kedir\u00a0Abaraya<\/strong> claimed third with 1:06:28, followed by American Taylor\u00a0Roe and Kenya\u2019s Magdalyne\u00a0Masai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1st\u00a0Loice\u00a0Chemnung (KEN)\u00a0\u2014 1:04:01<\/strong> (course record)<\/li>\n<li>2nd\u00a0Weini\u00a0Kelati (USA)\u00a0\u2014 1:06:04 (U.S. record)<\/li>\n<li>3rd\u00a0Diniya\u00a0Kedir\u00a0Abaraya (ETH)\u00a0\u2014 1:06:28<\/li>\n<li>4th\u00a0Taylor\u00a0Roe (USA)\u00a0\u2014 1:06:52<\/li>\n<li>5th\u00a0Magdalyne\u00a0Yeko\u00a0Masai (KEN)\u00a0\u2014 1:07:42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A celebration for runners of all abilities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond the elite performances, Barcelona\u2019s \u201cMitja\u201d is a celebration for thousands of amateur runners out to beat their personal best or simply soak up the atmosphere.  The 2025 edition already made history with more than 12,000 women and an average age under 35.  This year continued that trend: strong female representation and runners from every continent shared a course that blends art, history and sea views.  Organisers provided aid stations every 5\u00a0km, pacers for various finish times and an after\u2011race party called <em>PaRUNda<\/em> at Poble Espanyol, which sold out its 3,500 tickets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the leading Spaniards, <strong>Jorge\u00a0Gonz\u00e1lez<\/strong> clocked 1:01:52 and <strong>Carolina\u00a0Robles<\/strong>, racing the distance for the first time, finished in 1:09:38, highlighting the depth of domestic talent.  In the mass race there were touching stories: first\u2011time finishers overcome with emotion, athletes with disabilities completing the course thanks to volunteer support and charity teams raising funds for Barcelona\u2019s Sant\u00a0Joan\u00a0de\u00a0D\u00e9u Hospital, which received a one\u2011euro donation for every finisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips for preparing for next year\u2019s race<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you dream of running the next Barcelona Half Marathon, now is the time to start planning.  Here are some recommendations based on this year\u2019s experience:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Start training early:<\/strong> commit to at least 12\u00a0weeks of half\u2011marathon\u2011specific training that includes long runs, speed work and strength sessions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use digital tools:<\/strong> apps like <a href=\"https:\/\/snaprace.app\/\">SnapRace<\/a> let you plan, compete virtually and analyse your pace accurately.  Our virtual coach suggests workouts tailored to your level and keeps you motivated with weekly challenges.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recreate the course:<\/strong> incorporate goal\u2011pace sessions on flat terrain and practise surges to prepare for the long straights of Avinguda Diagonal and the seaside finish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sort out logistics:<\/strong> book your bib well in advance, pick up your race packet at the Expo Sports fair and use public transport on race day to avoid delays.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Enjoy the city:<\/strong> Barcelona is an exceptional destination.  Take time to visit the Sagrada\u00a0Fam\u00edlia or wander through El\u00a0Born during race weekend.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Barcelona Half Marathon\u00a02026 confirmed why the race holds World Athletics Gold Label status: lightning\u2011fast course, impeccable organisation and an atmosphere that enchants runners from around the globe.  The arrival of Hagos\u00a0Gebrhiwet and Loice\u00a0Chemnung with spectacular times puts the race back in the international spotlight and reminds us that Barcelona is where dreams become reality.
