Last year, at the 33rd Marathon, there were 1,200 runners who participated in the marathon which was a record of new participation. This year the Tiberias Marathon again is breaking records with 1,500 participants meant to run the race.

This number is expected to grow slightly, because we are waiting to find out if all the senior runners from Kenya and Ethiopia will have confirmation of landing from the Israeli Interior Ministry, and the most senior Israeli runners are at training camps abroad. We are very excited to have this many participants and are happy more then 22 countries are participating in the marathon.
