The story
Ras Al Khaimah Half Marathon in Ras Al Khaimah
Ras Al Khaimah Half Marathon, held annually since 2007, runs each February entirely on Al Marjan Island's flat, smooth coastal roads, one of the fastest half marathon courses anywhere, offering four distances, 2km, 5km, 10km and the marquee 21.1km half marathon, and regularly drawing world champion-calibre elite fields alongside thousands of recreational runners.
Three-time world champion and former world record holders have lined up on the same start line as thousands of recreational runners at Ras Al Khaimah Half Marathon, a race built entirely on Al Marjan Island's exceptionally flat, wide and smooth coastal roads specifically because that terrain makes it one of the fastest half marathon courses anywhere.
