5,824 finishers (2022) 3,207 finishers (2021) 8,106 (2019) KEN Reuben Kerio Women's: 2:24:37 (2022) ETH Siranesh Yirga The Rock 'n' Roll Madrid Marathon () is an annual marathon race which takes place in Madrid, Spain, in late April. The event was first held in 1978 and has since gained IAAF Gold Label Road Race status and had over 15,000 runners participate in the 2017 edition. A 10 km road race was added in 2010 and a Half Marathon road race was added in 2012.

The race course begins near Paseo de Recoletos and heads north past the Biblioteca Nacional de España, then the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. After 8 kilometres the route turns southwards and heads back towards Nuevos Ministerios. Runners then follow a twisting south-westerly route. After passing Plaza Mayor, it goes north past the Royal Palace of Madrid and reaches the half marathon mark at Parque del Oeste.

After exiting the park, it traces a path south for a few kilometres and includes a six-kilometre loop within Casa de Campo. After a section which loops back south and north, the course heads east, uphill towards Madrid Atocha railway station. It runs along the perimeter of Buen Retiro Park and finishes inside the park at Paseo del Duque de Fernán Nuñez. The course is AIMS-certified and is eligible for record performances. The course records are 2:08:18 for the men's race (set by Reuben Kerio in 2019) and 2:24:37 for the women's race (set by Siranesh Yirga in 2022).

Competitor Group, Inc., an American organiser of the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon series, partnered with local Mapoma Club in April 2011, making it Competitor's first event outside the United States.

The 2020 edition of the race was cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, with all registrants given the option of transferring their entry to 2021, 2022, or 2023, or obtaining a refund (minus management fees).
