Unforgettable Cycle Ride on the Tour de France Itinerary

With a full week to devote and a yearning to experience the more peaceful regions of the Alps in the warmer months, the alpine running festival presents an ideal option. Events include a sprint to an extraordinary 643km along some of Switzerland's most runnable mountain trails.

Energy came in the form of strong local dish served by enthusiastic aid station volunteers. The journey concludes at the shore on the south-eastern shores of Lac Léman for a refreshing cold plunge.

Participating in from Asia to Europe in the Transcontinental Race

Possibly the sole international footrace in the world that commences in one continent and ends in another, the Istanbul Marathon is a special adventure.

The start is especially spectacular, with a sea of athletes moving west across the imposing 15 July Martyrs Bridge as the strait splashes below. The route then continues to a district and onwards to the shoreline path hugging the edge of the Bosphorus. Gazing upward while running, you are confronted by a urban panorama featuring elegant spires glinting in the sunshine. The end point awaits, where delicious Turkish tea, small dishes, and fresh fruit served by cheering onlookers reward all runners.

Hiking the Great Peak the Best Way
