Presentation

Created in 1986, the Tunis-Carthage COMAR Marathon has become an annual sporting event that attracts more than 7 000 athletes, amateurs and professionals, Tunisians and foreigners who come to participate in the three races scheduled namely: The Marathon, the Half Marathon, the race for all and the Kids Marathon.

Our Marathon has continued to evolve from one session to another by consolidating the following axes:

  • Establish itself as one of the major sporting events in Tunisia (Tunisian championship for the 42.195 km), while opening up to all countries of the Maghreb, Europe and beyond.
  • Attract more and more foreign participants thus contributing to the promotion of tourism in our country.
  • Promote sport for all as a day-ot-day discipline in order to ward off the evils of sedentarism and preserve our health.
  • Perpetuate the environmental action and to engage in the protection of the planet (reforestation efforts).
