About the Doha Marathon by Ooredoo
Doha Marathon by Ooredoo has grown into Qatar's largest mass-participation road race and a World Athletics Gold Label event. The marathon shares a broad race program with shorter distances while retaining a fast, elite-led identity.
Course
The marathon starts and finishes at Hotel Park and follows Doha's Corniche, using broad coastal roads and long, flat sightlines. The simple profile is quick, but repeated exposure to wind and sun can make late-race pacing less automatic.
