KPMG Lentemarathon Amstelveen

Nothing to do with slowness, Lentemarathon means "Spring Marathon" in Dutch 🤓.

Great news, you have a date in the Netherlands in March for the KPMG Lentemarathon Amstelveen! 🤗 To celebrate the return of the spring 🌞, warmth and pretty flowers, what could be better than a marathon between city and nature? 👀 Amstelveen, just a few kilometers from Amsterdam, makes it possible! The event is new but in just 4 years the number of participants has more than doubled, going from 4,000 to 9,000 runners 🤯. This spring marathon has all the makings of a major event, you might think you're at the Amsterdam Marathon! And like it, it sells out every edition, so be ready for the race starting gun! 💥

But before that, we owe you a closer look at the event ⬇️. You’ll need to be quick—and not just to secure your bib! The course of the KPMG Lentemarathon Amstelveen is also very fast 🚀. 2h 28min and 41 seconds is the record to beat for the marathon! We warned you, this is serious 💪. At the same time, the plains of the Netherlands 🇳🇱 are not known for elevation, which makes runners happy! 🏃 If you don’t feel up to tackling that many kilometers 😬, 3 other distances are available: a half marathon, a 10 km, and a 5 km night run 🌔. So no excuses not to start ❌. And if that isn’t enough to convince you, the 5 and the 10 km are open to walkers. Bring the whole crew, everyone will find their joy. Even future champion seeds have their own race! 👶 The KPMG Lentemarathon Amstelveen isn’t just for speed addicts, it’s also for runners who want to enjoy the scenery. Spoiler alert 🚨, we’ll reveal a few parcours highlights! Historic center, forest paths 🌳, river Amstel (no, it isn’t the beer flowing inside 🍻), or the neighborhood Oude Dorp... A true journey awaits 🤩. And to cap this journey, head to the shopping mall! 🛍️ Yes, you read that right 😂. The finish line is in the heart of the big Amstelveen city center 📍. Didn’t expect such a finale, did you? 😎

Well, after spending all your money 💰 in Dutch shops to celebrate your win 🥇, what could you do next? 🤔 Refill? The city has you covered! The cheese makers are plentiful, so you’ll find some Edam, a typically Dutch cheese, without much trouble 😋. After this feast, you’ll surely be thirsty, so it will be time to enjoy an Edam, the Dutch cheese, without much difficulty 😋. After this feast, you’ll surely be thirsty, so it will be time to savor an Amstel on a terrace, under the spring sunshine ☀️ of the spring (to be enjoyed in moderation ⚠️). Yes, with nicer weather, outdoor strolls are a nice compromise to combine a convivial moment and recovery for your sore legs! There are many parks: Jac P Thijssepark, Kersenbloesempark, Broersepark... 🍃 Don’t worry, parks have more charm than their spellings 😂.

So do us a favor, grab your bib before it’s too late 😉.
