Nope. I'm the same person who disorganised last year's "1st Unofficial Tripoli Marathon & Half Marathon", we had over 50 people run last year.
This year, there's just a half marathon, if we get enough interest.

I would like to volunteer to help if available.  Just let me know the details of when, where, etc.

^LOL

Too hot to even talk about a half marathon. Will revisit in two weeks

Sounds nice. I signed up, do you have an actual page with the marathon info, or do I just hunt around for it on the forum ?

Sorry for offtop but I can't send private messages.
2 Mudman: I looked through your profile and I want to know about Janzour. How far it from sea shore? I'm looking for a house and now I have several offers there. Also I'm interesting in marathon.

Depends on where in Janzour you are! You could be 1m or 1km from the sea

Taking a point at random in the "centre" of Janzour, have a look on GoogleEarth:   32° 49.649'N , 13° 1.927'E. Nothing special about this point, it's just a random road.

Volunteers needed for marshalling, race day organising and some admin stuff. Please PM me if interested.

Note: this is an unofficial event. All competitors enter at their own risk and are responsible for their own safety. We will have trained medical staff on call.

Morning mate, I am going to let my friend Stu know about this, he is an 'Iron man' competitor, and if he is in country at the time I am sure I can persuade him to compete.
