The story

Tashkent Marathon in Tashkent

The Tashkent Marathon, also known as the Tashkent International Marathon or Nowruz International Marathon, is an annual road race hosted in Uzbekistan's capital since 2019. It holds World Athletics Label Road Race status and offers a full marathon, half marathon, 10K, and marathon-length ekiden relay in one race weekend.

The Tashkent Marathon began modestly, its inaugural edition on 24 March 2019 run as a half marathon rather than the full distance it offers today.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The Tashkent Marathon carries real international sporting weight: it is recognized by World Athletics as a Label Road Race, a status it earned at its 2022 edition, placing it among a formally ranked tier of global road races

02

The mystery stays covered

That same 2022 edition doubled as a joint event with a half marathon hosted by the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, linking the race to regional diplomacy, though it also became the first edition run under a ban on Russian participants following Russia's invasion of Ukraine a month earlier

03

The city starts moving

The race's Uzbek nickname, the Nowruz International Marathon, ties it to the Persian New Year celebrated across Central Asia each March, giving the event a cultural anchor beyond pure athletics
