The World Athletics Council has confirmed the host cities for the next three World Athletics Series at its meeting in Budapest ahead of the World Athletics Championships starting on Saturday in the Hungarian capital.
At the 231st Council meeting, the World Athletics Road Running Championships for the next three editions have been awarded to San Diego, USA, for 2025 and to Copenhagen, Denmark, for 2026.
“We are grateful that so many great cities around the world are interested in hosting our events and we’re delighted with the quality of the candidates we have had to choose from to host these World Athletics Series events over the next three years.
“The standard of bids is so high that we would like to encourage those who were not successful today to continue talking to us about staging future events”, President Coe stated.
Copenhagen returns as a host city after successfully staging the World Athletics Half Marathon Championships in 2014.
