Location here,
If you feel like winning the race and breaking a world record, position yourself at the beginning of the runners’ group.
If your ambitions are more moderate, please allow the fast runners to start at the front and position yourself further in the crowd.
This is particularly important for popular categories, such as the 5 km run, which has about 3000 participants. The cut-off time for the full marathon is at 1 pm, when the roads need to reopen for car traffic. However, even after 1 pm we will provide a safe escort to the finish line for every remaining participant.
Good luck in your category! We believe in you and know you can OUTRUN YOUR LIMITS.
Parking will not be available at the event site. Park at one of our convenient locations and we’ll take you to the race! Shuttle buses will be available to transfer runners to and from the event.
There are two bag drop locations on-site to check in your items while you participate in the event.
Please leave any valuables at home or with your supporters. Items left are at
your own risk and the race organisers will not be held accountable for any
theft, loss or damage.
An army of 77 frontline paramedics will be available both along the race course and in dedicated areas. Cycle responders will be available to reach runners quickly.
We will also offer free physiotherapy services.
Once you cross the finish line you can claim your medal, custom made for the 2023 edition of the Doha Marathon by Ooredoo!
Keep racing with us every year to add to your collection.
Proceeds from your registration will be used to give back to the community - THANK YOU!
