- Neujahrsmarathon Zürich
-
The Neujahrsmarathon Zürich (New Year's Marathon Zurich) is a marathon race held on January 1 each year, since 2005. The start takes place at midnight, exactly at the beginning of the New Year. Start and finish are located in Schlieren near Zurich in Switzerland. The track consists of four laps along the river Limmat. Besides the marathon, there are also a half marathon (two laps) and a quarter marathon (one lap). Since the 6th edition in 2010, the finish area of all three races is located in the middle of a sports hall. The race is subject to a time limit of 5 hours, being extended in case of bad conditions (snow, ice).
