Marathons, Half Marathons & Runs in Pune

Pune's biggest running event of the season is the 40th Pune International Marathon, scheduled for Sunday 6 December 2026 at the Baburao Sanas Ground near Swargate, according to the organisers' website. First run in 1983, it is one of India's oldest city marathons. Race listings show full marathon, half marathon, 10 km and 5 km categories along with a shorter run, and recent editions have started the long races in the small hours, around 3 am, to finish before the day warms up; confirm categories, start times and bib collection on the official site. Around it, the cool months from November to February carry most of the running calendar: half marathons and 10K races, which in past seasons have started from the Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex at Balewadi and the university campus, charity and corporate runs, and hill and trail races on the tekdis and the Sahyadri foothills. Pune's altitude, about 560 metres, and its hills make it a strong training city, and running groups meet at Vetal Tekdi, the university and Pashan every weekend. This page lists upcoming marathons, timed runs, cyclothons and triathlons in Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
