Long Course Weekend Belgium

About the event

Long Course Weekend Belgium is an exhilarating multi-discipline festival that immerses athletes in the rich history and scenic beauty of Flanders. Over three days, participants can craft their own weekend challenge by selecting from various distances across swimming, cycling, and running events.
Friday kicks off with a swim at Nieuwpoort Beach, offering both 1.9K and 3.8K options to suit all levels. As the sun rises over the Belgian coast, swimmers dive into the water for an invigorating start to their athletic weekend.
Saturday brings Cycle Flanders Fields, where cyclists can choose from a variety of routes covering 45K, 90K, and the epic 180K course. The rolling hills and picturesque landscapes provide both challenge and reward as riders pedal through historic battlefields and charming villages.
The event culminates on Sunday with the Nieuwpoort Marathon series, featuring a range of distances including a 5K fun run, a 10K race, half marathon, and full marathon. Runners will experience the vibrant atmosphere along the coastline as they push themselves to their limits in this memorable finale.
For those seeking an ultimate challenge, completing all Long Course events earns athletes a coveted fourth medal, adding prestige to their achievement. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting out, Long Course Weekend Belgium offers an unforgettable weekend of sport and camaraderie.
