Strange, you’re still not registered 🤔. Yet Tunisia is calling you, not to sip a good mint tea 🍵, but to start your next half-marathon 🏃. Afterward, you can always enjoy one after your achievement 🫢.
If you didn’t follow, the Running Club Bizerte sports association organizes the second edition of the Bizerte Half Marathon 😆, after a very successful first edition appreciated by everyone 💐 ! With a route alternating between sea and city, Bizerte is a beautiful destination to take on a challenge 🌆. Anyway, whether you are coming from Tunisia or farther afield, you can’t say no to a race! 😋 We know it’s not an easy distance, but to get more motivation, they didn’t forget their greatest supporter: the mascot Delfino 🐬. So don’t worry, it will be there to cheer you on, from start to finish 🏁, just like the many dedicated volunteers 🌷. Plus in June, the sun rises early. And you’ll tell us “great” because the start is at 8AM, so better be on time! If half-marathons are not your thing yet (we hope soon 🙂), there’s also a 5 km. Not forgetting the children, who also have the right to a unique course! 👶
Apparently, it is estimated that less than 1% of the world's population run a half! 😳 So we know, 21.0975 km, it’s precise, but it’s also a great challenge 🔥. With intense and well-guided preparation, when coming to Bizerte, you might be the next Jacob Kiplimo 💪. 56 minutes and 42 seconds, is it doable? Anyway, we wish you the best! But it’s also a pleasure run 💖, so yes finishing time is nice, but most important is to enjoy your race! ⭐️ If you prefer shorter challenges, the proposed 5 km is perfect ⛏️. Joy, pleasure, and challenge. In short, it’s nice to run and perform as an adult, but time flies 🕦. What about the future and the next athletes? 🤓 Don’t worry, with a children’s race of 1 km, all the future runners will be in front of you! 🤪 Try to spot the next running star, they might be ahead of you! 👀
We feel you’re two steps away from clicking “confirm payment”, let us motivate you just a bit more 😄. By going to this country, you won’t be afraid of being frustrated; the landscapes are rarely disappointing! 🏞️ Just in Bizerte, you will be immersed in a city filled with history 📚. With the old port, the beach or the beauty of the city, you have enough to admire its specialties 📍. But know also that Tunis, the country's capital, is only 1 hour away 🚗. The city is home to a medina you must see (listed as an UNESCO World Heritage), museums and very typical alleys 🤌. In terms of side activities, we assure you, you are well catered and you won’t regret the trip ✈️. But in Arab countries, we also don’t forget the gastronomy: couscous 🍲, brick, chakchouka, Lablabi, Baklawa… 🥜 You’ll have plenty to recover well after your run! 😋
Come on, rest is over, time for challenges starting with Tunisia! 🇹🇳
