At the HCA Marathon, even the youngest participants can write their own adventure on the MiniMarathon course, which spans 1/10 of a marathon (4.2 km) and finishes at the same spot as the "real" marathon. The course is guaranteed to be car-free.
Bring the kids along for a day focused on running. With MiniMarathon, there’s plenty of fun and exercise in store for the youngest, while parents either run themselves or cheer from the sidelines.
The races are divided into age groups, and in the 5 to 9-year-old group, one parent is allowed to run alongside each child if they don’t want to run alone. (The parent running with the child does not need to register.)
MiniMarathon is for children and young people under 18 years of age.
Groups are divided by birth year, not by the child's birthday.

Ruten er 1/10 marathon (4,2 km) på trafikfri rundstrækning i Odense.

Dear parent running alongside your child: Remember, you are NOT acting as a pacer for your child but providing reassurance. Let the child set their own pace.
All MiniMarathon participants MUST keep to the left (outer lanes) on the final stretch.

Please be patient
Har du et ærinde i Odense søndag 29. september 2024, vil det være en god idé at beregne god tid til transporten, idet HCA Marathon afvikles på denne søndag. Det er ensbetydende med lidt mere besvær med at komme rundt i byen, og der appelleres derfor til ekstra tålmodighed og hensynsfuldhed i trafikken.
70 Hjemmeværnspolitifolk
Rundt omkring på ruten er posteret 70 Hjemmeværnspolitifolk samt en række uddannede trafikofficials, der tager sig af trafikreguleringen, derudover har Politiet patruljevogne og motorcykler kørende rundt ved arrangementet, hvis der skulle vise sig at opstå problemer. Langs ruten er desuden posteret mere end 200 frivillige vejvisere.
Fra kl. 5.30
Afspærringsarbejdet starter søndag morgen kl. 5.30 fra fem forskellige punkter på ruten, som herefter skal stå afspærret og klar kl. 8.30. Vis hensyn og giv afspærringsholdene ro og sikkerhed til deres arbejde – kør forsigtigt!
Starten er fra Odense Idrætspark kl. 10.00, hvor såvel Marathon som 1⁄2 Marathon skydes i gang. Samtidig går starten på ”Løb de sidste 10” fra startstedet på Flakhaven – Odense Rådhus.
Efterhånden som sidste løber passerer de enkelte punkter på ruten, fjernes afspærringerne og trafikken normaliseres igen fra kl. ca. 16.00.
Vi henstiller til bilisterne om at vise hensyn og respekt for det arbejde, der udføres af de mange frivillige på vejene i Odense ved HCA Marathon samt for deltagernes kamp mod de mange kilometer.
Sådan kan du køre:
De større indfaldsveje til Odense kan stort set passeres, dog med visse reguleringer og ensretninger, der efterhånden som sidste deltager passerer, bliver normaliseret igen.
