Report a correctionAbout this race
Held each April in Istanbul, Turkey, this World Athletics Gold Label half marathon is prized as a fast, flat course. Title-sponsored by Turkiye Is Bankasi, its route traces the Historic Peninsula shoreline past the Golden Horn, Bosphorus and Sea of Marmara amid 8,000 years of history. First run in 1987 as a Golden Horn race and re-established in 2015, it offers 21.0975K and 10K distances; Ruth Chepngetich set a half-marathon world record here in 2021.
