Tiberias Marathon
Race Day Weather
Cool start — fast day potential, warming through the race, chance of rain
A cool 48°F at the start line is ideal for fast times — expect to warm up quickly once you're moving. Temperatures rising to 61°F through the course will gradually increase perceived effort in the second half. Light winds shouldn't be a major factor for pacing. There's a chance of rain, so have a backup gear plan ready.

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.
