Dam tot Damloop ({{IPA|nl|dɑm tɔt ˈdɑmloːp}}; {{langx|en|Dam to Dam Run}}) is an annual road running competition held in the province of North Holland in the Netherlands. The main event is a 10-mile race from Amsterdam to Zaandam. The race was an IAAF Road Race Silver Label Event from 2013 until 2019.

History

The Dam tot Damloop was first held as a fun run event in 1985. Elite runners were invited the following year, with world record holder Fernando Mamede and Dutch record holder Carla Beurskens taking the men's and women's titles. Ingrid Kristiansen set the current women's record in 1987 with her run of 50:31 minutes.

From the 1990s onwards, the elite race has been dominated by East African (particularly Kenyan) runners.Van Hemert, Wim (18 September 2011). [http://www.iaaf.org/news/news/komon-sizzles-4434-over-10-miles-in-zaandam Komon sizzles 44:34 over 10 Miles in Zaandam]. IAAF. Retrieved on 27 January 2013.

In 1999 and 2000, the main event was a half marathon instead of a 10 miles race.

Leonard Patrick Komon is the current men's course record holder with his time of 44:27 minutes in 2011 (the second fastest ever for the distance). From 2013 until 2019, the race was a Silver Label event of the IAAF Road Race Label Events.

The race was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic."[https://do.occdn.net/p/75/f/statistieken-dtd-2022-1.pdf Statistieken]" (in Dutch), Dam tot Damloop. Retrieved 23 September 2023.

Races

The races are jointly organised by Stichting Sportevenementen Le Champion and two running clubs (AV Atos and AV Aalsmeer).

In addition to the main 10-mile race, the event hosts shorter races for children and several business team competitions. The Dam tot Damloop 10-miler attracts high level of participation: almost 10,000 runners competed in 1990, rising to almost 20,000 in 1999 and almost 40,000 in 2008.Cees Lansbergen & Martin Gerritsen: 25 jaar Dam tot Dam loop. {{in lang|nl}} Centraal Boekhuis, 2009, {{ISBN|9789066117082}}

The Damloop by night takes place the evening before the main Dam tot Damloop race. It is a 5-mile race in the dark through the centre of Zaandam.{{cite web|title=Damloop by night 5 English Mile|url=http://www.damloop.nl/en/damloop_by_night/|website=Dam tot Damloop|access-date=26 April 2016}}
