On January 12, 2025, the Dubai Marathon will take place with a special partnership with Guinness, giving runners from around the world the opportunity to challenge global records while participating in one of the region’s most prestigious events.
This innovative event offers a variety of exciting categories for record-breaking attempts. From running in unique outfits such as suits, school uniforms, or doctor costumes, to dribbling a football or basketball along the route, running blindfolded, or even attempting records like running alongside family members, such as mother and daughter or father and son, each participant can showcase their creativity.
Shadi Ghad, Senior Marketing Manager at Guinness, said:
“This collaboration with the Dubai Marathon is an exceptional opportunity to inspire communities and encourage them to engage in sports activities in a creative and exciting way. Participants can showcase their achievements through Guinness’ official channels and have an unforgettable experience.”
Peter Conron, Event Director of the Dubai Marathon, added:
“This initiative is open to all registered runners for the January 12 marathon. However, any attempts to set records involving fundraising must be approved in writing by the relevant authorities.”
The event is supported by prominent partners such as the Dubai Sports Council, Adidas, Xiaomi, Dubai Police, the Dubai Municipality, and other sponsors.
