Comfortable temps, moderate wind

Mild 59°F temps at gun time mean comfortable early miles without overheating risk. Moderate winds around 17mph may affect pacing on open sections of the course. Moderate humidity at 70% is worth noting for effort level, especially in later miles.

Race Info

The Tiberias Marathon runs along the Sea of Galilee shoreline in northern Israel, with an out-and-back course between Tiberias and Kibbutz Ein Gev. At roughly 200 meters below sea level, it is among the lowest-elevation marathon courses in the world. First run in 1977, it serves as the Israeli national marathon championship and is typically held in early January. The men's course record is 2:07:30, set by France's Patrick Tambwe in 2012; the women's course record is 2:25:45, set by Ethiopia's Hiwot Gebrekidan in 2017.
