The NMDC Hyderabad Marathon 2026, one of India’s most prominent city marathons and a World Athletics Label Road Race, has officially opened registrations marking the beginning of its landmark 15th edition.

The Early Bird phase, which concluded on March 15, 2026, witnessed an encouraging response from the running community, reflecting the growing popularity and strong engagement the marathon continues to enjoy year after year.

The Registrations for all race categories will remain open until April 30, 2026, and participants are encouraged to secure their spots before the closing date.

This milestone edition also introduces a revamped logo, reflecting a refreshed and contemporary identity for the marathon. The new design captures the evolving spirit, scale, and legacy of the event while aligning with its vision for the future.

In line with its commitment to community impact, the marathon will open its Charity Window throughout the month of May, enabling participants to contribute towards meaningful causes. This year, over 30 NGOs have been onboarded as charity partners, creating a platform to raise funds and drive awareness across diverse social initiatives.

As part of this initiative, exclusive charity bibs will be made available during May, allowing runners to participate while directly supporting a cause of their choice. The charity platform continues to be a key pillar of the NMDC Hyderabad Marathon, strengthening its role beyond sport into social impact and community development.

Organized by Hyderabad Runners Society, the NMDC Hyderabad Marathon has consistently promoted fitness, inclusivity, and active lifestyles while building a strong running culture in the city and beyond. With the 15th edition expected to attract over 32,000 participants, the event continues to grow as a premier platform for runners, communities, and partners to come together in celebration of endurance, purpose, and collective impact.

Registrations are now open and will close on April 30, 2026.
