This event, which was created in 2000, is a human adventure above all. It’s one of the only marathon in the world that brings to the runners a well known race confort with no help from any paid organization. Indeed, the support depends to all the human forces of the commune : servants of the communes, voluntary workers, inhabitants. It makes a total of 1400 volunteers mobilized to serve the runners and make them have a comfortable race.
Every year, the marathon takes place on a public holiday : Mai 1st. On that day, people celebrate work day, offering some lily of the Valley to their beloved. Senart marathon is a green and musical marathon. The hot line of the organizers is to make a race where all the runners are treated equitably. The competitors whose rank is one to five win some money, and all the runners are given special tee-shirts, some lily of the Valley. More than the material rewards, the runners enjoy a lot of musical animations during the race. More, 4 leaders of speed are engaged to run, respecting the time objectives of 3h, 3h30 , 4h00 and 4h30.
