The Barcelona Marathon is one of the most popular in Europe. The course takes you through the centre of the city and includes main landmarks such as the Camp Nou (the home of Barcelona FC), Sagrada Familia, the Parc de Cuitdadella and finishing a short distance from La Rambla.
With very few hills or inclines, the course is very flat and fast, and suits first time runners, or those going for a PB!

Gareth ran the Marathon De Sables (MDS) in 2025:
“So I’d like to say thank you because whilst completing MDS was my main goal, I set out to raise a massive amount of money for Chance for Childhood which proved harder than I thought and at one point I thought it was impossible. But with your endless support and generous donations, I didn’t give up!”
Ewan is a student from Exeter University who trekked to Machu Picchu in 2025:
“It’s an experience you don’t want to miss out on, the fundraising is fun, the trip is fun, and you’ll grow as a person. All while raising money for charity.”
