Maasmarathon de Visé
Maasmarathon de Visé is a flat marathon in Visé, Belgium, held each May. Two loops from Visé along the Meuse, crossing the border into the Netherlands. The organiser describes it as flat and fast, on quiet country roads and paths through villages and historic centres. Early May in the Meuse valley is typically cool to mild, with temperatures of about 6 to 17°C and a chance of showers. On a course as flat as Maasmarathon de Visé, even splits are everything; the classic mistake is banking time in the first third.
