The volunteer team

Organised within a non-profit framework (Law of 1901), the Marathon de la Liberté relies on a dedicated core of volunteers who work year-round to prepare each edition. The event could not exist without their commitment, which contributes both to the promotion of sports and to the visibility of the Normandy region.

On race day, more than 1,600 volunteers actively contribute to the success of the event. Their tasks are numerous and all essential to ensure the participants’ safety and experience: assisting runners, logistics, starts and finishes, entertainment, refreshments, and more.

Volunteer commitment is expressed through strong values: conviviality, team spirit, respect and sharing, which make each edition a real collective adventure, both human and sporting.
