The Bahrain Marathon features a fast, flat course primarily around the Manama waterfront and through downtown Bahrain, taking runners past the Pearl Monument and along coastal promenades. The route is largely loop-based with minimal elevation change, making it ideal for fast times. The December timing ensures cooler Gulf temperatures compared to summer months.
Pleasant winter weather with mild temperatures and low humidity. Sunny days with minimal rainfall make December ideal for running in the Gulf region.

Runners come to the Bahrain Marathon for one reason: personal bests. The flat, fast course through Manama has a reputation as a PB factory, with the roads seemingly designed to keep your pace honest and your splits consistent from start to finish.
