27. Vivicittá Run, Budapest, 1 April
'The event offers a 21.1km half marathon as well as a number of shorter distances (11.2km, 6.2km, 3.2km, and a 1km Family Run). In 2012, the start/finish area will be on Margaret Island (Margit-sziget), a green island in the River Danube, and a popular recreation ground with many sports facilities.

All routes are very attractive. The 3.2km run takes place on the island but the longer races take runners along both banks of the Danube, through the tunnel under Castle Hill, across the magnificent Chain Bridge, and past the splendid Hungarian Parliament Building.
