Vechtstreek in Beweging Lopen

Vechtstreek in Beweging Lopen is a small running series in Maarssen, held early in the year with a field capped at 300 participants. Each race offers six paved, traffic-free distances from 2.5 km to a half marathon, accommodating children, first-timers, steady recreational runners, and faster club runners within the same program. The route uses the green area around the Maarsseveense Plassen, a recreation area just outside town, and pacers are available for runners who want help holding a steady pace. The VIB runs are organized by local athletics groups including OSM’75 Atletiek & Recreatiesport Maarssen and Omni Sportvereniging Maarssen Atletiek, affiliated with the Atletiekunie; the series is local, practical, and open to anyone from young runners to older participants.
