Running Around the World

As running becomes increasingly popular, and thousands of running events take place around the world each year, more and more runners plan their vacations around the races that interest them.

Writer Nathalie Rivard has selected over 325 running events including a range of themes: humorous, set in iconic and gorgeous locations, extreme adventures, for foodies, and even sports events with obstacle courses and rolling through mud and bubbles! Whether you are a seasoned Ultra-Trail runner or a beginner who gets a kick out of 5 km courses, there is something for every taste and skill level!

From the Disney Marathon to the Himalayan Marathon, by way of the Spartan Race or the Brain Freezer, running is a way to push your limits while discovering new parts of the world, one kilometre at a time.

Running Around the World is also a website, www.runningaroundtheworld.com, which will be launched at the same time and provide additional information, interviews with runners, and inspiring articles about running.
