The proceeds of this running event will be donated to charity!
The Marathon course consists of one whole round, often on unpaved and uneven terrain.Compared to the first 5 editions, there is something more in paved area.
All distances of the Brabant Wal marathon run over hilly terrain, the unique Brabant Wall. Add to this the factor of the weather, and the experience of a natural loop is complete! The first year it was hot and got the runners to deal with dusty trails and loose sand. The second edition showed a totally different side is the weather: rain and wind turned the trails into mud and puddles.
The half marathon has traditionally been the largest field with 234 participants in the big field.
