Basel marathon days

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Basel Marathon Days are a running event in Riehen near Basel that has been held every autumn since 1976.

organization

From 2010 to 2013 it was held under the name Run to the Beat Basel in downtown Basel, with the organizer offering musical accompaniment at several points along the route. The title sponsor is currently IWB ( Industrielle Werke Basel ) and has been giving the event the name IWB Basel Marathon since 2014.

The event is organized by the running sports club Basel - until 2008 on the last weekend in October. The classic marathon distance of 42.195 km led in four laps through the Lange Erlen recreation area , for the most part along the banks of the meadow . The course, which ran with almost no inclines, began and ended at the Grendelmatt Stadium . As part of this running event, a half marathon and the only relay marathon ( Ekiden ) in Switzerland to date will take place in parallel . Until 2008, the relay race was held the day after the marathon and half marathon. With the new event concept since 2010, it takes place on the same day and starts several hours after the individual competitions.

Since 2010, the route has consisted of a lap in downtown Basel with start and finish on Barfüsserplatz and an altitude difference of 125 meters. It must be run twice by marathoners and once by half marathoners.

In 2006 the Swiss Marathon Championships were held as part of the Basel Marathon Days.

At the seventh edition of the IWB-Marathon 2016, more than 3000 starters were registered on September 25th and Nuno Valente from Basel won the marathon distance with a time of 2:47:03 h and Heidi Johansen from Denmark with 3:14 for the women : 58 h.

For individual starters, a half marathon and a 10-kilometer run were held in 2017 and the marathon distance is no longer offered.
