People who like to run, understand that participating in marathons is a fun-filled affair. After all, you get to run along with like-minded folks who share your love for running. And if you are a resident of Dubai who is constantly on the lookout for new marathon events, then you are in for some brilliant news. We say this because Burj2Burj is returning to Dubai in February 2025 after the successful first edition in January 2024. Here’s all about it.
Burj2Burj To Make A Return In February 2025
Burj2Burj had successfully completed its first edition of the half marathon. This is a half marathon, which is mapped by experienced runners and the distance is from Burj Al Arab to the majestic Burj Khalifa. Complete with live music, a supportive audience, and unparalleled views of the Dubai cityscape, this 21.1 km run is certainly going to keep you energised. As it happens, registrations are already open on the website of this half marathon.
What Can You Expect From The Marathon?
Within 10,000 participants, and the three-hour cut off, it’s certain a great way to realise your potential. Complete with party vibes that will be infusing every mile, the route will take runners across a tranquil Jumeirah Beach road as they finish the journey at the Burj Khalifa.
In fact, it’s worth mentioning just like the previous edition, there will be support points, which includes six water and medical comfort points at the start and end. While there will be four points that will be posted regularly along the road. It’s worth mentioning that this is a zero plastic event and there will be first aid and security service available as well.
However, if you don’t wish to book online, then you can make live registrations, which begins on February 7, 2025. So, get your training started and participate in this upcoming half marathon that we are sure your marathon-loving soul wouldn’t want to miss.
