The Czech Republic Marathon Championships is the annual national championships for marathon running in the Czech Republic. The race serves as a way of designating the Czech national champion for the marathon. The race was first contested in 1993 for both men and women.[1] The championships have been held at different venues, but since 1998 all events have taken place in the capital city of Prague.

The fastest time recorded in the Czech Republic Marathon Championships is 2:12:35 by Róbert Štefko during the Prague Marathon in 2004. The record women's time, set in 1995 in Pardubice, is 2:27:00 by Alena Peterková. Athletes with the most championships are Petra Pastorová, with six women's titles, and Petr Pechek, with five men's titles. The only other runner with five titles is Ivana Martincová.

Since 1998, the championships have taken place in Prague as part of the Prague Marathon,[1] with the exception of 2020, when no race was held,[2] and 2021, when an elite-only event titled Battle of the Teams was held in Prague instead of the open race.[3] Prior to 1998, the Ostrava Marathon served as the championship race in 1996,[4] and the Mělnik Marathon was a one-time host of the race in 1997.[5]
