Join Guatemala Impact Marathon 2025
The 2025 Edition will be our 7th race in this extraordinary country, and once more, our iconic race route on Pacaya Volcano will be the climax of a truly powerful and remarkable week. Impact Marathons are not just a race, they are entire week of immersion into a community, into a nation, into your ability to make a positive impact. This blend of travel, impact, and outstanding trail running is what makes Impact Marathon the most unique racing series out there - and a bucket list event for all runners to join.
We will be staying in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Antigua - with its colonial buildings, cobbled streets, and volcanoes looming large above our heads, it is a truly remarkable place to experience. Through the week, alongside our immense charity partners, SERES, we will be catalysing change through the power of youth. Proving them with knowledge, skills, attitudes, values and the support they need to thrive as adults, enjoy good health, succeed economically and make meaningful contributions to their communities.
The climax of the week is a night camping in the shadow of the active Pacaya Volcano, before a trail race like no other. Joined by hundreds of Guatemaltecos, we run the live volcano! The highlights of the route include the 8km of running across the moonlike landscape of the lava fields that surround the lower slopes, before a long climb to the ancient craters (with some good rumbles coming from the currently active crater a little higher above you), this is an unmissable running experience. More importantly, we set achievable cut-offs that encourage you to stop of that photo, to pause and breathe in your surroundings, and to truly experience the magic of running in Guatemala. Your time doesn't matter (we don't even publish results), the important thing is that you get to treasure every step on your way to our iconic finish line, and receive your hand carved medal...
If you want to meet the most amazing humans, create life-long friends, truly connect with the positive impact you can have in the world, and see Guatemala from a viewpoint few others ever have...then this is the week for you. Oh, and somewhere along the way, you'll realise you ran a marathon!
Detalles de la ruta
Beast by name and nature, the full marathon distance is truly a spectacular and challenging route. You will dig deep within yourself to reach the finish line, but the rewards are even more profound. With our generous cut-offs, the route may be tough, but it is possible to pace yourself well to the finish line. The highlight, after a long climb, is the ridgeline around an ancient crater near the summit of Pacaya Volcano. Just above your head is the active McKinney crater—you'll hear the rumbles, maybe see some lava rocks tumbling out, and before you know it, you're heading down back towards the finish line. This route is to be treasured and will be the highlight of your running life, a race unlike any other found across the globe.
21km - I 'Lava' This Race
An iconic race route that takes in the entire southern lava field—it's like running on the moon! You'll have a fast first few kilometers as you head down through the Los Pocitos community towards the lava field. You'll follow the trail right across the hardened lava and up 'The Wall'. This long hill winds upward on black sand through fincas, communities, and forest trails. Each time you look up, you'll see gases emitting, and you might even hear the rumble of the crater that sits above your head. This route is tough, but with our generous cut-offs, it's entirely achievable.
10km - I 'Finca' That's Enough
A truly spectacular route that offers a little bit of everything. Starting inside Finca El Amate, you'll cross the lava fields, run through the beautiful pineapple fields, and enter the Los Pocitos community. Here, you'll experience a bit of road running as you make your way down to the vast lava field that covers the southern side of Pacaya Volcano. Since it's an out-and-back route, make sure to high-five and share a sweaty hug with those you pass along the way.
