About half Marathon
History of half Marathon
The Chisinau Half Marathon by OM in 2025 will be the first event of its kind in the capital of Moldova, opening a new chapter in the history of mass running events.
Since 2015, the Chisinau Marathon has become a symbol of change, inspiring tens of thousands of participants: some achieved personal records, others set an example for their children or created family traditions, while for many, it became an opportunity to strengthen team spirit within their groups. Now, the time has come for the half marathon—a new challenge for those striving for greater heights.

IN 2025
The capital of the Republic of Moldova will host the Chisinau Half Marathon for the first time! This major sporting event will bring together running enthusiasts from across the country and abroad.
Marathon is not just a sports event. First of all it is a big celebration for the city. Families come outside on the streets to support the athletes, they cheer and celebrate.
And when you reach the finish line, and you can hardly walk, they give you a medal, tap you on the shoulder, give you hugs, say congratulations and cheer you up, and you feel that you made it! And it’s the best feeling in the world!
