Marathons, half marathons and trails

After one distance in particular? Romania also has its own marathon calendar, half marathon calendar and trail running calendar. Many races go by their Romanian name: a maraton is a marathon, a semimaraton a half marathon, and a cros is a cross-country run, often a school or town race. Every race page shows the distances, the start location and a link to the official entry.

Spring and autumn are road racing season: April and May bring the big city marathons and half marathons, and September and October the second wave, with the Timișoara City Marathon and the Brașov Running Festival. Summer belongs to the mountains, with trail races from June to October. Winter is quieter, though Bucharest still has the Maratonul 1 Decembrie in December and the Semimaraton Gerar half marathon in January. Organising a race that is not listed yet?
