Story
As the Palestine Marathon was due to take place in Bethlehem, thousand of us will be running wherever we are for Palestine.
On Friday 17th April, 10,000 Palestinian and international runners were due to be pounding the streets of Bethlehem for the 10th Palestine Marathon. The Palestine Marathon takes place in the shadow of the illegal Separation Wall, with locals and internationals coming together in Bethlehem to take on the full marathon, half, 10km or family 5km fun run.
Since 2020, Amos Trust has organised Run The Wall to coincide with the Palestine Marathon. Thousands of people around the world have run or walked in solidarity with Palestine over the same weekend.
Due to escalations in the region, and the ongoing genocide in Gaza, the marathon has been postponed to May, but we are still running the weekend of 17th-19th April to show our solidarity!
Our community is running or walking 5km, 10km, a half marathon or a full marathon, at the same time as the Palestine Marathon was meant to be, to fundraise for our work in Gaza and the West Bank.
