Qatar's first Ultra-Marathon (50K) by Aspire
Aspire Zone is set to host Qatar's first ever 50 kilometer ultra-marathon, the International 6:50 Race.
The long-distance race, which will take place on March 6, is challenging residents to conquer Aspire Zone and step out of their comfort zones.
A 5km Loop around Aspire as a test event or challenge for those looking for "beyond the marathon" racing and training or just wanting to test themselves to go as far as they can (up to 50k) within a 6 hours window.
Starting at 6.00pm, the loop will encompass multiple drinks stations, web streaming at the lap point and the usual goodies from an event such as split times in the results, photo, finishers medal, t-shirts and post run refreshments.
This will be an AIMS measured (accurate) course and will carry an IAU Bronze Label - a hint of bigger things to come in late 2014!
Entry fees are non-refundable, please read the terms and conditions of entry.
Full details will be emailed to all entrants closer to the event. Race pack pick up will be in the Aspire Dome from 3.30pm on Race Day.
