Font Vella Lanzarote International Marathon
The Lanzarote International Marathon is a multi-distance running event held in December on the island of Lanzarote, Canary Islands. Races run along the island's east coastline under typically sunny skies and an average air temperature of about 21ºC. The organizer presents the event as part of the local sporting calendar with a friendly and open atmosphere.
The program spans several days and includes an expo area with race number collection, last-minute registration, and an athlete information point. Support services listed include a cloakroom and medal engraving at the runner expo. Family and community activities appear in the schedule, such as children's races within the Buddy's Club Marathon, a Santa Claus 5 km race held two days before the main marathon, Zumba warm ups for kids and for the Santa Claus event, live music at the finish area, and an awards ceremony at the finish area.
Shuttle buses connect Costa Teguise with the start locations in Puerto del Carmen and Arrecife, and the organizers encourage use of the island intercity bus as a sustainable transport option. Distances offered include:
- 42 km (full marathon)
- 21 km (half marathon)
- 10 km
- 5 km Santa Claus race and children distances
