One of the more picturesque marathons in the world, the Rio de Janeiro Marathon winds 
through the city streets, starting in Roceiro and finishing in Flamengo.

Runners will see parts of famous neighbourhoods like Praia de Reserva, Leblon, Ipanema, 
Copacabana, Botafogo and Flamengo enjoy a backdrop of spectacular scenery that is 
provided by the ocean and the Serra do Mar Mountains.

Crowds in excess of 100,000 turn out to watch the race and ensure a carnival atmosphere, 
which of course is what Rio is so famous for.
