The 8th LUX* Mauritius Marathon will take place this Sunday 16th July. The 10k, half-marathon and marathon options are all International Association of Athletic Federations (IAAF) Certified.

The marathon route takes runners from the start at St. Felix beach on 42,195 km along the coastal road to the turning point close to the spectacular Le Morne mountain and back to the Finish line at St. Felix public beach. Competitors will be able to enjoy a swim in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean afterwards and then relax with a massage, food and drinks, and a Sega party.

The Mauritius Marathon is fast becoming one of the must-do worldwide events for sports enthusiasts, not least because competitors are able to savour one of the most beautiful courses in the world.
