As is well known, in Romania, the Marathon category is by far the most contested. Entire provinces, such as Moldova, focus only on this category, and the results of Romanian pigeon fanciers in this category are getting better and better, including at the international level. Things were the same in the 2023 season, when Romanian breeders intensely contested the trophies up for grabs in this category.
Like most categories, the Marathon category is divided into separate rankings for youngs and mature pigeons. In the 2023 season, 4,427 mature pigeons achieved the Marathon category norm, and 2,987 yearlings achieved the norm.
