Midzomermarathon Apeldoorn

The Midzomer Marathon is an evening road race in Apeldoorn, Netherlands, held on the longest evening of the year. It features five distances, ranging from a 7 km race to the full marathon, accommodating casual runners, half-marathoners, and those targeting the 42.2 km distance. The start and finish are located at Sportpark Orderbos, near S.V. Orderbos, with a field limit of 1,500 participants. The course winds through Apeldoorn and extends into the Veluwe, incorporating wooded areas and parkland instead of a solely urban setting. The longer races commence earlier in the evening, with time limits of 4 hours for the 28 km and 5 hours for the marathon. Aid stations are positioned along the route, offering Powerbar Isoactive during the race and at the finish. Awards are presented to the top three male and female finishers in each distance.
