About the Amman Marathon
Amman Marathon is Run Jordan’s full-distance capital-city event, staged alongside shorter road races. It brings a large local field onto central roads while highlighting the city’s historic core.
Course
The urban marathon uses central Amman roads around the downtown and Roman Theatre area. Long grades, frequent direction changes, and warming conditions make the course more demanding than a flat elevation summary would suggest.
