São Tomé’s completed edition and what to confirm before travelling
The latest dated registration is evidence of a completed race, not an invitation to enter a future edition. Check the year in the entry title as well as the event name; older links on the organizer website can lead to previous programmes. A working payment platform or a general enquiry form does not by itself mean a new marathon is open.
The 2026 entry card gives a general 09:00 event time, but it does not establish a separate full-marathon start, route, aid schedule or finish limit. Ask for the full-distance participant guide before using that time to plan race morning. A shared event listing can cover several distances whose practical arrangements differ.
For a future trip, confirm the start and finish addresses, bib collection and transport with the organizer before choosing accommodation. Keep the 42.195 km entry distinct from the 10 km and half-marathon options. If travelling with someone running a shorter race, agree on meeting arrangements after both finishes rather than assuming all categories end together.
The charitable purpose is part of the event’s identity, but it does not replace practical race information. Review what your entry includes, how a date change would be handled and whom to contact for participant support. Prepare familiar clothing, footwear and supplies only after the route and available aid are clear, and use the actual forecast close to the event. Until a new dated programme appears, maintain general training without scheduling a final taper around an assumed June weekend. If you need a confirmed marathon for a fixed holiday, choose one with an announced date and full-distance registration.
