Course details

Course highlights

The new race route of the Radisson Blu International Larnaka Marathon is flat and fast, passing by the main landmarks of the city of Larnaka. The perfect setting for runners to reach and break their PBs! Start: The race begins at Foinikoudes, in front of Larnaka Town Hall. From there, runners head east, turning right at the end of Foinikoudes, continuing on the right side of the road until they reach the first turning point at the 5 km mark, before the roundabout by Larnaca Beach House. Next, runners go along Larnaka-Dhekelia Avenue on the right side of the road, heading toward the Livadia roundabout. After a right turn and another 500 meters, they hit the second turning point, leading them towards Larnaca Harbour roundabout. Heading into the city, runners pass through Makariou Avenue and Zinonos Kitieos, reaching the historic St. Lazarus Church, showcasing the charming city centre. From St. Lazarus church, runners go through the Turkish Cypriot neighborhoods, ending up on Piale Pasa, one of Larnaka’s scenic coastal roads. From Piale Pasa runners head east and repeat the route up to the 28.5 km mark. At this point, runners continue west along Artemidos Avenue, passing the famous Salt Lake and reaching the mosque of Hala Sultan Teke, which marks the third turning point. The runners will then head towards Larnaka Airport roundabout and continue until they reach the final turning point of the race to return to the coastal avenue of Piale Pasa, pass the city’s Medieval Castle and finish the race at Foinikoudes, in front of Larnaka Town Hall.

Only the gun time is recorded in this race, but most runners are interested in the chip time. It is not modern and village level

Well organised event with plenty of post race places for an iced cold beer under the palm trees. This event is only going to get bigger and bigger!👍🏻

Good support at the start/finish area.

This was my second time I ran this marathon! This year was even hotter, but there was plenty of water in the stations, in bottles, not in plastic cups! which was life-saving! At the 30K station, there was a male volunteer who gave me accidentally a sports drink, instead of water. After 100m, I saw him running at my pace to give me the bottle of water I had asked for!! I really thank him!! I still believe that this marathon should start earlier at 7am, instead of 8am. Also, I would suggest the 10K race to start later, when I finished the marathon at around 3:30hrs, the last few kilometers were overcrowded and the clock would show the time for the 10K, not the marathon, therefore I wouldn't know my finish time! Overall one extra star compared to last year, there is room for improvement.

200m elevation gain, mostly flat, 2 loops is boring

Everything was excellent, except the fact that while the event was heavily promoted as "green", many fliers were distributed inside runners' bags, which my friends and I considered not to be a very "green" idea. Yes, they may be recyclable, but it is still likely more unnecessary than not. Something to consider for the next time (perhaps, promote info printed on those fliers digitally).

Very convenient, an all-rounder for those who do not wish to posit themselves as too much in to it, but who are still willing to get a good kick out of it. In the end, it is all about the charitable cause this event pursues.
