Semi-Marathon et 10 km de Zurrieq

Step into the quaint village of Zurrieq, nestled on the island of Malta, for an unforgettable running experience. The Zurrieq Half Marathon & 10K has transformed since its inception in 2013, offering runners a smoother course and picturesque landscapes that showcase Malta's authentic charm.
Scheduled to take place during mid-November when temperatures are pleasantly cool, this race invites participants to explore the island through two distinct distances. The half marathon offers an opportunity for those aiming to chase personal records on well-maintained roads, while the 10K provides a shorter yet equally scenic route. For younger runners, there's also a Kids Race of 1.5 kilometers.
The event’s course winds through Zurrieq and nearby traditional villages such as Qrendi, Mqabba, Kirkop, and Hal-Far. These historic settlements offer glimpses into Malta's rich history and culture, with minimal elevation changes ensuring runners can focus on the stunning scenery rather than grueling climbs or descents.
After crossing the finish line, there are numerous attractions to explore nearby. The Blue Grotto offers breathtaking views of emerald waters, perfect for a post-race stroll. For food enthusiasts, Marsaxlokk’s bustling fish market invites you to savor local delicacies in a convivial setting. History buffs can visit Ħaġar Qim, a UNESCO World Heritage site that dates back thousands of years.
In the heart of Valletta, Malta's vibrant capital city, runners can enjoy traditional cafes and shops while reflecting on their race experience. This urban area contrasts beautifully with the rural charm of Zurrieq, providing a well-rounded taste of Maltese life and culture.
Forget about Zurich or Barcelona; head to Malta for an authentic running adventure that combines history, natural beauty, and local hospitality in one exhilarating event.
