Marathon

The CPC Loop Den Haag is an annual running competition in The Hague offering multiple race distances including a half marathon, 10 kilometers, and 5 kilometers through the city streets. The routes take runners through different neighborhoods and offer varying levels of challenge for all abilities.

The event was established as a significant running competition in the Netherlands, growing in participation and reputation over the years. The 48th edition marked a milestone when a national record was set during the race.

Thousands of school children participate in dedicated youth runs, making it the largest school running event in the Netherlands. Young runners from across the country gather here, turning the day into a celebration of junior athletics and community spirit.

Registration opens several months in advance with different starting waves organized based on expected completion times to ensure smooth race progression. Booking early is advisable, and checking your assigned starting group details before the event day helps with planning.

The race circuit extends toward the North Sea coastline at Scheveningen, allowing participants to run along the beach boulevard. This coastal section gives runners an unexpected seaside experience in the middle of the competition.
