HolidayCity.com – On 25th April 2010, the beautiful city of
Madrid would once welcome thousands of marathon runners and running
enthusiasts from around the world to the 33rd edition of the Madrid
Marathon, also known as Mapoma. Long regarded as one of the most
beautiful marathon tracks on the international calendar, the Madrid
Marathon is also more challenging at an altitude of 700 metres with a
hilly terrain. The route takes the runners through a greater part of
the city, starting at the Paseo de la Castellana, and passing through a
series of magnificent landmarks such as Casa de Campo, Puerta del Sol,
beautiful boulevards and parks. Madrid hotels are expected to run at
high occupancy rate as thousands descend on the city.
The Madrid Marathon 2010 is more exciting this year with the introduction of the new
10km Run that starts with the marathon, with an early finish at the finishing line,
giving them the opportunity watch the marathoners come in later. The maximum entry
of 13,000 runners is expected to be met easily as the attraction also lies in Madrid
being a city that offers excellent shopping, exciting nightlife and amazing dining
experience. The marathon is also well known for the warm welcome and enthusiastic
support of the locals.
Lee Lai Huat, CEO of HolidayCity.com and a running fan himself, commented, “One of
the highlights of participating in the Madrid Marathon is the chance to take in some
of the most beautiful sights in the city. You would also feel like you’re in one
huge fiesta with the locals and spectators cheering on everybody throughout the
route.” He went on further to remark, “It is definitely one of the marathons each
avid runner should try at least once. With fantastic room rates and deals for Madrid
accommodation from HolidayCity.com, runners can now choose to stay longer and enjoy
