Le Marathon Calais XXL

The Calais XXL Marathon is a Sunday running event held in Calais, located in the Pas-de-Calais department of northern France. The primary event is the full 42.195 km marathon, commencing at 08:00. A half marathon, covering 21.097 km, begins at 10:00, followed by a 10 km race at 11:00. The structure offers participants three distinct options on the same morning: the full marathon for those seeking the classic distance, the semi-marathon for a shorter long-distance challenge, and the 10 km for individuals desiring a more accessible run. SOCalais Athletisme organizes the event, maintaining its connection to the local athletics community rather than presenting it as solely a marathon day.
