Maceira周辺のHalf Marathonレース

The Meia Maratona de Leiria begins at Jardim Luís de Camões in Leiria, Portugal. The 10K and half marathon start in the morning, following the kids' race. The primary event is a certified 21.097 km half marathon, sanctioned by the FPA and World Athletics. The event also includes a 10K, a Kids Race, and a 5 km walk suitable for all ages. The event is organized by Câmara Municipal de Leiria, with NativeWarriors handling the sports event management. It caters to runners seeking a certified road race time and families desiring a shorter or non-competitive activity. Bib pickup is scheduled before race day, showers are available at the Municipal Stadium of Leiria, and course maps will be given to participants.

The Semi-Marathon International de Nazaré begins in Nazaré, on Portugal’s Atlantic coast. Participants can select either a half marathon or a 10 km road race. The course traces the Portuguese coastline, ensuring the sea is an integral part of the event, not merely a distant view. Following the race, many participants use Nazaré as a starting point to explore the surrounding area. Sítio da Nazaré offers an elevated perspective of the town and coast. The Gothic Monastery of Batalha is accessible for a visit after the race, and the beaches at Praia da Vieira and São Martinho do Porto provide nearby alternatives for a more tranquil conclusion to the journey.

The Semi-Marathon de Fátima begins at the Sanctuary, a landmark central to one of Portugal’s significant pilgrimage sites. The primary event is a 21.095 km half marathon. A 10 km pace option and a non-competitive 10 km distance start concurrently in the morning. Runners and walkers are welcome, and the event is open to adults and older teenagers. The course is fully marked and secured, passing through Fátima and its environs, not confined solely to the sanctuary area. This setting provides the race its distinct character: Fátima hosts approximately 6 to 9 million pilgrims annually, and this event places runners within that same public space. The most unique tradition occurs the evening before the race, when participants may assemble before the sanctuary for a blessing of their running shoes.
