This unique marathon runs through the Greek and Roman ruins of Emp\u00faries and along the Costa Brava coastline, offering runners a truly unforgettable experience. If you&#8217;re looking for a different kind of challenge, this guide will help you discover all the key details of the race, its schedule, available services, and practical tips to make the most of both the event and your stay in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">History and setting of the Emp\u00faries Marathon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The race was created in the early 2000s as a tribute to the connection between athletics and the history of <strong>Emp\u00faries<\/strong>, one of the first entry points of Greek civilisation into the Iberian Peninsula. Over the years, it has become one of the most distinctive races on the calendar thanks to its route through the archaeological remains of the <strong>Museu d\u2019Arqueologia de Catalunya \u2013 Emp\u00faries<\/strong> and the coastal villages of L\u2019Escala and Sant Mart\u00ed d\u2019Emp\u00faries. Running here means stepping directly into history: you\u2019ll pass Greek walls, Roman mosaics, and enjoy breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to the marathon, the event weekend includes distances for all levels: a half marathon, 10K, and a 5K fun run, making it a family-friendly event. Both the start and finish lines are located in front of the museum, providing a spectacular setting. The race also hosts the <strong>Girona Marathon Championship<\/strong>, attracting high-level runners competing for the provincial title.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Weekend schedule and key timings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organisers have prepared a full weekend of activities for runners and their companions. Here\u2019s the main schedule for 2026:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Saturday, April 18:<\/strong> runner\u2019s expo (10:00\u201320:00) at the finish area, bib and race pack collection; children\u2019s races (16:00) and 5K fun run (17:30).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sunday, April 19:<\/strong> simultaneous start of the marathon, half marathon and 10K at 8:30 from the Emp\u00faries Museum; out-and-back course with a 5-hour time limit; awards ceremony from 12:30 onwards.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Late bib collection:<\/strong> Sunday from 7:00 to 8:00 (only for those unable to attend on Saturday).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Post-race services:<\/strong> showers at the municipal sports centre, physiotherapy service, free changing facilities and guided stretching sessions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Course and race profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Emp\u00faries Marathon covers the official <strong>42.195 km<\/strong> distance on a mostly paved course that is fully closed to traffic. It is an out-and-back route that includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The historic centre of Sant Mart\u00ed d\u2019Emp\u00faries, passing Greek walls and Roman remains.<\/li>\n<li>The seafront promenade of L\u2019Escala and Emp\u00faries beach, with constant Mediterranean views.<\/li>\n<li>Pine forests along the Costa Brava, where flat terrain helps maintain a steady pace.<\/li>\n<li>The urban streets of L\u2019Escala, animated by music and local support.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The course features <strong>aid stations every 5 km<\/strong>, offering both drinks and food, along with cheering points to keep motivation high. Although the elevation is minimal, coastal winds can play a significant role, so it\u2019s advisable to include training sessions in exposed areas to prepare for these conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Registration, categories and services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Registration for the Emp\u00faries Marathon 2026 is handled through the official website of the <strong>Consell Municipal d\u2019Esports de L\u2019Escala<\/strong>. Race bibs include a timing chip, technical T-shirt and a very special gift: a jar of L\u2019Escala anchovies, a local gastronomic symbol. Entry fees vary depending on the distance and increase as race day approaches, so early registration is recommended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Categories:<\/strong> junior, senior and veteran divisions, with subcategories every five years; local rankings are also available for runners from L\u2019Escala.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Services:<\/strong> free bag drop, physiotherapy at the finish, showers, toilets, live entertainment, massage area and children\u2019s zone during the race.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Awards:<\/strong> trophies for the top three finishers in each category and special prizes for course records; all finishers receive a medal and race pack.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Training tips and race strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preparing for a coastal marathon requires adapting your training to the specific conditions of the route. Here are some practical tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Adapt to coastal conditions:<\/strong> include sessions in windy areas to get used to gusts, and combine flat runs with gentle inclines to build strength.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focus on steady pacing:<\/strong> the flat, traffic-free course is ideal for maintaining a consistent rhythm; include marathon-pace blocks in your long runs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t neglect the finish:<\/strong> a strong final push can make a difference.
