De Panne Beach Run & Kids Run

About the race

De Panne Beach Run & Kids Run is a summer beach race on the wide beach of De Panne. The race follows the waterline near the Leopold I Esplanade and combines sea views, fresh coastal air and a course that feels distinctly different from a classic road race. Children aged 7 to 12 have a Kids Run of about 1 km, while adult runners can choose between a recreational 5.5 km and a competitive 10 km. With its evening start, finish on the Zeedijk and place within the Loopcriterium van de Kust, the race has a strong coastal identity. It is an accessible, lively running evening for families, recreational runners and competitive athletes.
