The Beirut Marathon 2022 will be held on November 13, 2022, in the capital city of Lebanon, i.e. Beirut. The marathon is an annual event conducted in Beirut, Lebanon, that was first staged in 2003. The marathons are organized by the Beirut Marathon Association, a non-profit non-governmental organization registered with Lebanon’s Ministry of Youth and Sports.
Over 6,000 runners from 49 different countries participated in the first marathon, which was held on October 19, 2003. Thousands of Lebanese and foreign spectators also watched the competition. The BLOM Beirut Marathon in 2009 had 32,000 runners from 71 nations which rose to 47,800 runners in 2017. Mohamed Temam, the pacesetter, took first place in the men’s race in 2010. In that race, Hussein Awadah finished the course in 2:20:31, breaking the Lebanese record. The men’s and women’s records were both improved in 2011, when the course was changed to make it quicker and simpler to organize.
The 2019 event was cancelled owing to anti-government protests, with all registrants offered the option of shifting their entry to 2020 or receiving a refund. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the race’s 2020 edition was cancelled, and all participants who had transferred their 2019 entries were offered the option of receiving a refund.
