Starting and finishing in the Olympic Stadium, the Amsterdam Marathon attracts up to 22,000 participants every year. The route is fast, free of traffic and - as you'd expect in the Netherlands - flat!
Digital clocks and refreshment stands line the route, which passes through the Vondelpark, below the Rijksmuseum, alongside the Amstel River and back to finish in the stadium.
For the marginally less energetic, there's the half marathon and the Echo 7.5km run.
Founded in 1976, the marathon is now classified in the Golden League category by the International Association of Athletics Federations - the highest level for road-racing competitions.
