Rolling Half Marathon

About the Event

The Rolling Half Marathon is a standout running event nestled along the picturesque Mediterranean coast of Lebanon. This 21.1 km race winds through Byblos (Jbeil), one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited cities, offering runners an unparalleled journey through over seven millennia of history and culture.
Starting near the shoreline, participants are greeted by stunning seaside vistas as they pass through charming fishing villages and open coastal landscapes. The route seamlessly blends natural beauty with rich historical landmarks, providing a unique backdrop for every runner. As the race progresses, competitors enjoy panoramic views of the azure waters while navigating scenic roads that showcase Lebanon's diverse coastline.
The event culminates near Byblos' historic walls, where runners finish in an iconic setting steeped in ancient heritage and modern vibrancy. This memorable conclusion celebrates both personal achievement and a connection to one of the region’s most revered historical sites.
In addition to the individual race, The Rolling Half Marathon also offers a team relay option for groups of four participants. Teams can share the experience while enjoying the same breathtaking coastal scenery that captivates solo runners.
With its limited entry numbers, this event fosters an intimate and lively atmosphere, uniting athletes from around the globe in appreciation of sport, history, and Lebanon's stunning coastline beauty.
