About the Rimi Riga Half Marathon
The half is a headline race within Latvia's biggest running weekend, not merely a secondary distance. A large field, strong elite performances, and a central-city setting give it both competitive depth and broad runner appeal.
Course
Riga's road course uses broad central streets and Daugava crossings around the historic core. The profile supports fast running, though bridge exposure, turns, and patches of urban surface still reward relaxed pacing and clean tangents.
Race-day weather
Mid-May in Riga is commonly cool to mild, with wind and rain both realistic. Conditions can be excellent for racing, but exposed river crossings may feel noticeably cooler.
