Group training with Sparta

Every Sunday at 9:00 AM, Sparta Atletik & Løb, the organiser of Copenhagen Marathon, hosts free group training.
We kick off on 16 November 2025, starting from Idrætshuset – right next to Sparta Atletik & Løb in Østerbro, Copenhagen.
There are pace groups with pacers from 4:15 to 6:30 min/km. Everyone is welcome – even if you are not registered for Copenhagen Marathon.

A running community can bring structure and motivation to your training. That’s why Copenhagen Marathon collaborates with running clubs across Denmark, so you can find someone to run with near where you live.
