Distance
Terrain
The races are run on a single loop that is covered twice, entirely inside Montauban's town walls and through the heart of the city. The route takes in the main roads, the streets of the old centre and the approaches to the town's great historic monuments, among them the Pont Vieux, the musée Ingres and the place Nationale, so the marathon effectively traces the history of Montauban from past to present. A half marathon and a 10 km run share the same circuit, while a 9 km walk and a 1 km children's race complete the programme. The 2026 edition is scheduled for Sunday 29 March.

Not entirely. The first 10 km are quick, but the section along the banks of the Tarn between km 12 and 13, and again between km 17 and 19, is undulating, before the climb back up into the town centre.
The route is a single loop entirely inside the town centre. Marathon runners cover it twice, which doubles the difficulty of the climb back towards the centre at the end.
Yes, a 9 km walk is offered in addition to the 10 km, half marathon and marathon.
Electronic chip timing is used, with the chip worn on the shoe. Some runners have noted that the clock starts for everyone at the gun, which can create a gap between the official time and the time actually spent on the course.
Yes. Each edition relies on a team of volunteers working at the event and out on the course, and runners regularly praise their welcome and their work.
