The Course Record
2019The fastest time ever recorded at the Dead Sea Marathon is 02:14:31, set by Yigal Sher in 2019. Every year, new contenders line up hoping to challenge that mark on the streets of Ein Bokek.
Running on Empty
The Dead Sea Marathon takes place in one of the most extreme environments in endurance sport. The desert landscape strips away everything except the essentials: one foot in front of the other, hydration discipline, and the stubborn refusal to stop. It's not just a race — it's a reckoning.
