Witness history in the heart of the Amazon at the I Maratona de Macapá, the inaugural edition of this landmark race scheduled for March 15, 2026. Organised by Peuara Adventure and held at the Clube Toca da Onça, this event marks a significant milestone for the state of Amapá, offering a professional platform for runners to challenge themselves in the unique climate of northern Brazil.

Every runner receives an exclusive event jersey corresponding to their chosen distance, alongside a finisher’s medal to commemorate their participation in this historic first edition. With the support of local organizers committed to safety and professional standards, the I Maratona de Macapá invites you to leave your footprint in the Amazonian soil.
