What?
With over 15 thousands runners, the Antwerp 10 miles is the major running event in the region of Flanders. A marathon is organized as well the same day but earlier in the morning (1500 runners in 2010).

Where?
In the city centre of Antwerp (www.garmin.be/Parcours/Antwerp10Miles/fullscreen-10miles.html), crossing a few times the river Scheldt, running on both the river banks and going around the cathedral and the university area.

When?
The 2012 edition of the Antwerp 10 miles and marathon will take place on Sunday 22 April. The DVV Antwerp 10 Miles will start at 3.30 pm.

Why?
Antwerp is not only the diamond capital (apparently more than 85% of the world’s rough diamonds are traded in the city) and offers many cultural attractions. The two races are major events in the area and you will be able to run through the Kennedy and Waasland tunnels (both closed to the traffic, as most of the city centre) enjoying many music groups along the way. The options in the Flanders are endless, Brussels is only one hour away and the North Sea is a great idea for a day off.
