Sarajevo Half Marathon

The NGO has successfully contributed to improving image of the country as well as of Sarajevo and is raising awareness about running as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Most of the members of NGO Sarajevo Marathon are from Bosnia and Herzegovina and are experienced athletes who run more than 3,500 kilometres (2,200 mi) each per year.

They also have the more general aims of improving the well-being of society as a whole through promoting a healthy and dynamic lifestyle, volunteering, and raising ecological awareness.

By offering a range of events, the group attempts to reach a large part of the population by enabling people to run in at least one of the races, or more according to their physical abilities.

The Sarajevo Half Marathon is a 21.6 kilometres (13.4 mi) fast and flat street race, going through the most beautiful part of the city.

Run to the Hills is a 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) trail race organized on Mont Igman, one of Sarajevo's Olympic sites.
