The Marathon du Médoc is often described as the craziest, most entertaining marathon on the planet. After experiencing it firsthand, Tara and I unpack whether it lives up to the hype.

Set among the world-famous vineyards of Bordeaux, this unique event combines running, wine tasting, gourmet food, outrageous costumes and a festival atmosphere unlike anything you’ll find at a traditional marathon.

In this episode we recap the full experience — from the build-up and excitement of race week through the unforgettable sights, sounds and flavours along the course. We cover the logistics, the costumes, the crowds, the wine stops and the moments that made the event so special. Whether you’re a serious marathon runner, a bucket-list traveller, or simply curious about one of the world’s most unique running experiences, this episode is packed with laughs, stories and plenty of reasons to add Médoc to your running bucket list.
