Sofico Gent Marathon 2022
We are looking forward to welcoming you again at the start of the 2022 Sofico Gent Marathon on 27 March 2022.
Sofico Gent Marathon 2021
It looks like Covid-19 will continue to be part of our society for a while longer. But we, the organisers, continue to have a positive outlook on the future and we have managed to devise a revised and safe format for the 2021 Sofico Ghent Marathon offering not one date, but several running dates between 20/03/2021 and 18/04/2021.
Loads of runners have been training hard over the last months. There is a great deal of enthusiasm and a strong urge to run. A great hunger for a physical event. We want to feed that hunger by offering this revised, safe format. A large-scale event in 1 day is no longer realistic nor is it a desirable scenario for many participants. That is why we are now opting for this alternative scenario as a positive and hopeful rush ahead.
Extra Measures
Our organisation has devised a new format to guarantee maximum safety and comfort for our participants. Many of these measures are described in detail in these FAQ.
Maximum 90 participants per half hour slot
Free start in the time slot selected by you (between 8:30 and 11am)
Bib number will be sent to your home
You cross the starting line and follow the arrows until you get to the finish
