World Road Running Championships Storylines To Watch
Whenever Jakob Ingebrigtsen decides to run – or speak – the world watches. This week, the world will be watching Copenhagen, as Ingebrigtsen and hundreds of other elite runners are slated to compete at the 2026 World Road Running Championships.
The two-day event will crown six world champions out of a pool of 496 athletes (including Ingebrigtsen, Agnes Ngetich and Yared Nuguse ), but 65,000 amateur or recreational runners will run the same courses this weekend. Saturday, September 19, begins with the One Mile and the 5K, while Sunday, September 20, hosts the Half marathon.
