Novo Mesto Half Marathon

About this event

The Novo Mesto Half Marathon brings World Athletics-certified racing to Slovenia's charming medieval town each November. The event offers three distances — half marathon, 10K, and 5K — all starting together in a mass start that creates an electric atmosphere. The half marathon follows a gentle profile with just 102 meters of climbing, making it ideal for those chasing a personal best on European roads. The 10K course uses a smart two-lap design, while the 5K offers a single loop perfect for first-time racers. Organized by the local Dolenjska Running Association, the race combines professional timing and elite competition with a welcoming community vibe that celebrates runners of all abilities.
