Annecy Marathon and Half Marathon
|
Sunday 25th April 2020
|
| This year the race will be a week later than London and is an ideal antidote! It is everything that London isn't and is probably one of the most attractive marathon courses in Europe. Now in its 25th year, it boasts clean air, snow capped mountains, and beautiful lakeside panoramas and a flat, fast course. There is also a half marathon option run as a separate event over the first half of the course, which attracted nearly 2000 runners in 2020. |

Mont-Saint-Michel Marathon
|
Sunday 20th June 2020
|
| Although a fairly recent addition to the marathon calendar, and now in its 7th year, the Mont-Saint-Michel Bay Marathon has rapidly become one of the predominant marathons in France, ranked second behind Paris as the fastest marathon in the country. With a field of some 6000 entries the race is the 3rd largest in France. Following the coast along the Mont-St-Michel Bay through polders reclaimed from the sea in the 19th century it must be the only marathon where the runners can see the finish from the start and watch it get closer mile by mile throughout the race. |
