Major running events in Brazil

Overview

Major running events across Brazil are preparing for upcoming editions with significant growth in participation and new branding.

In Aracaju, the 2026 Aracaju Marathon has seen registrations rise to over 14,000 participants, up from approximately 10,000 in the previous edition. With over 90% of spots filled, only the 5 km distance remains available via the ‘Kit Quero Correr’. The event will feature musical performances by Ninha da Bahia on October 31 and Tony Salles on November 1. Additionally, the Sesc Running Circuit is scheduled for September 12, requiring a donation of 10 kg of rice or beans to support the Sesc Mesa Brasil program. The Santander Track&Field Run Series is also hosting the Aracaju II stage, featuring various distances and a kids' race.

In other regions, the São Silvestre International Race has introduced a new visual identity for its 101st edition, themed ‘The first of the next hundred years’. This campaign focuses on amateur runners and historical participants using a vibrant color palette. The Rio de Janeiro International Half Marathon expects approximately 18,000 runners, a 50% increase from the prior year. Some distances in the Rio event serve as official qualifiers for the Brazilian Athletics Confederation to select athletes for the World Road Running Championships.

In São Paulo, the 59th Corrida Sargento Gonzaguinha is scheduled for December 13, organized by the Military Police Physical Education School.
