Rolling Half Marathon

About the Event

The Rolling Half Marathon is an exceptional running experience nestled along the picturesque Mediterranean coast near Byblos (Jbeil), one of the oldest continually inhabited cities on Earth. This 21.1 km journey offers runners not just a race, but a profound connection to thousands of years of history and culture.
Starting at the water's edge, participants are treated to stunning views of fishing villages and expansive coastal landscapes as they run along winding seaside roads. The route weaves through areas rich in natural beauty and historical significance, providing an immersive backdrop that combines ancient architecture with modern urban life.
As runners near the finish line, they will find themselves passing by the historic walls of Byblos, a moment imbued with both physical achievement and cultural appreciation. This unique setting ensures each runner leaves with more than just a personal best; they take away memories steeped in Lebanon's rich heritage.
Beyond the individual race offering, The Rolling Half Marathon also includes a team relay option for groups of four runners. This format allows friends or family to share the scenic coastal route and enjoy the camaraderie that comes from collective effort.
With its limited spots available, this event attracts athletes from all corners of the globe who come together to celebrate not just their own athletic endeavors but also the beauty and history of Lebanon's coastline. The Rolling Half Marathon promises an exclusive atmosphere where every runner feels part of a special community dedicated to both sport and cultural appreciation.
