Welcome to our second Maastricht event, after the highly appreciated event in 2019 we have decided to return for 2024 with an urban event on two days!
For 2024 we have doubled the mapped area compared to our last event in Maastricht in 2019; with that addition we are able to provide you a shortened long distance City Run on the Saturday and a Middle distance City Run with WRE on the Sunday!
We are sure you will like Maastricht with everything it has to offer, including of course our both City Run events!
