This is possibly the race that I am most excited about, because I have always wanted to do a multi-day stage race. The total distance of the race is 88.5 km covered in four stages over four days.
Here are the stage lengths:
- 22 km
- 17.5 km
- 31 km
- 18 km
The website for the race is www.marathondescedres.com. On the website are videos, pictures, map, and several other things. Race cost is 1,500 Dh and registration can be done online. As much information as I have found online and in the in the flyer, I still have several questions that I will be looking for answers about. The biggest question that stands out to me is, is there a camp at the end of each stage or are the participants transported back to Ifrane for the evenings and back to the next days start? I will be looking for answers and when I find out I will post my answer here on the blog. The answer could be on the website and I am just missing it because it is in French, but either way when I find out, I will let you know.
Key info:
- This is a 4 day 4 stage race that is 88.5 km total in length
- The cost is 1,500 Dh
- Registration can be done online
- This is the races fifth year
So, here are three more running races in Morocco that you should look into doing, I know I hope to do at least one of them. As the race dates draw closer, if I find out any new information I will continue to put updates on the blog and hopefully I will be able to run one or two of them and let you know how it goes.
As always if you have any questions, comments or info please leave a comment below or email me at runningmorocco@gmail.com. Now get up and go for a run!
