Egyptian Marathon

Very enjoyable race, the course was flat and not many people did the full marathon. But I would say it was one of my best runs and fast finishing time. The air was nice and the temperature on the day was very favorable. You have to run around a loop course 4 times, but it was well organized. I liked the fact that it was largely flat and and enjoyable run.

This is a smaller race but I found it extremely well-organized. Easy pick-up of running bib the day before and race director (Nada) was very helpful. It’s a 4-loop course for the full marathon but seeing the temple and monument ruins (especially sunrise as we started from Hatshepsut Temple) made it a great course to run. The streets were well-blocked and lots of police presence made me feel safe even though I was running alone for much of the race. Water stations (bottled water) and bananas every 2-3 miles. I appreciated they kept the water stations open until everyone finished. Overall definitely recommend...great location, flat course, nice race team!

Race held on the 15th of January 2021.

If you are looking for a historic place and an exotic medal this is your race. Pick-up of the race number, start on time and good refreshment supply are on international level. The scenery and the motivation of the organisation team are more than great. Cool Egyption medals !!! If you are expection and interantional standard registration process, credit card online payment and race results some hours after the race you will be disappointed. On top you have to run 4 times a 10 km circle. You can register on the event homepage and you get a confirmation e-mail that your request arrived. Some days later you get an e-mail (looks more like a pishing e-mail) where they offer you a hotel package. Only after some weeks of e-mail exchange I got bank details and had to transfer the participation fee. I also had to bear the bank fees which brought the participation fee up to almost 110 EUR :-( But all in all a great exprience and an interessting race

Let's try it, I wish to see this marathon successful..and have a lot of people from over the world.. Good luck
