Muscat semi marathon

 

Next week is the Muscat semi-marathon. It takes place on the beach road (18th November St.) behind Seeb International Airport on February 6th.

There are actually 3 races going on : 21km, 10km and 3km. The latest is open to families and kids as well as wheelchairs. It starts at 7:00am for the two longest loops and 9h30 for the 3km one.

The entrance fee is 3.5/2.5/1.5 RO depending on which race you want to run.
