THE DREAM
This evening race loops through the streets of Appingedam, a small town in the northern Netherlands.
Based on a 5 km loop course, the 10 km event covers two laps, while walking, children’s, and frame-running events take place earlier in the day.
Now in its 28th year, this local tradition turns the entire town into course for the day.
