Easter Challenge

About the Event

Spring into action with our Official Marathon and Half Marathon this season. As runners of all skill levels prepare to take on the challenge, both distances offer ideal conditions for achieving personal bests in age-group categories. Set against mildly undulating terrain, these meticulously measured courses present a perfect blend of endurance testing while remaining manageable.
Participants can choose between conquering 26.2 miles or aiming for excellence over half that distance. Ideal for those looking to qualify for major marathons with strong performance times and equally suitable for athletes pushing the boundaries on full marathon routes. Every mile is clearly marked, ensuring a smooth race experience managed throughout by dedicated event staff.
Don’t let this opportunity slip away as you gear up for an exciting season of road racing. Registration will soon open exclusively online, so be sure to add it to your calendar now and kickstart your training regimen with confidence. Race day promises an invigorating atmosphere that inspires and motivates all competitors long after the final finish line is crossed.
Join us this spring as we celebrate athleticism in a picturesque setting, complete with vibrant supporter sections cheering each competitor on every step of their journey.
