World Masters Athletics Championships Daegu 2026 – August 22 to September 3.
In this episode, a representative from the Local Organizing Committee (LOC)
joins Boyke to give international athletes the inside track on everything
that matters: competition venues, shuttle buses, free transport cards for all
participants, training facilities, accommodation booking, medical and
physiotherapy services, and how the LOC is managing the heat.
But this is more than a logistics briefing. Daegu is about to become the first
city in history to host both the Indoor and Outdoor World Masters Athletics
Championships – a dream that started with the 2017 Indoor event and comes true
this summer. Our guest also shares personal tips for first-time visitors: where
to eat, what to see, a few Korean phrases that will get you far, and why the
Athlete Holiday programme is worth planning around.
If you're competing in Daegu or still deciding whether to register – this
episode is your starting point.
