Run the holiest marathon in the world – the Jerusalem Marathon!

Last updated:

Marathon JerusalemAfter previous very successful International Jerusalem Marathons, which has seen some 20,000 runners from more than 54 nations taking part, the 2025 Jerusalem Marathon has been set for April 4, a week or so before the holiday of Passover (another reason to visit!)!

As in previous events, there are a number of options to choose from, including a full marathon, a half-marathon and a 10K run – all of which pass through Jerusalem’s unique landscape, rich in history, religion and culture.

In addition to the longer distance races, there is also a 4.2 run open to the general public and a 800 meter run named “Running for a Cause”, in which thousands of runners – families, children and youth – raise money through sponsorship for various charities.

For further details and to register, see the official site.

And if you’re in the mood, why not tackle the Tel Aviv Marathon!
