The Marathon starts in the beachside city of Cascais and finishes alongside the Luso Portugal Half Marathon in Lisbon. Both the marathon and half marathon (which starts on the Vasco da Gama Bridge) are IAAF Gold Standard. The marathon course is flat, fast and incredibly scenic. Both races feature live music along the course and a Finish Line Concert.

The 2020 edition of the race was postponed to 2021.10.17 due to the coronavirus pandemic.[1]
