Do you really drink wine during the Médoc Marathon?

Yes—and it’s even one of its defining features: around twenty "wine-and-sport tastings" line the route, with moderate pours of grand crus served at every château you pass. On top of that, there are 22 standard refreshment stations and 55 gourmet activities (oysters, rib steak, cheese). Here, moderation takes precedence over performance, in this marathon like no other.
