About this event

OneSpirit OneRace is an event organized in California, held in parallel with the Beirut Marathon. It embodies our mission of building an active bridge between Lebanon and California.

The Beirut Marathon, established in 2003, is one of the Middle East's most prominent annual sporting events, attracting both professional athletes and amateur runners from around the globe. The race includes various categories, such as:

  • Full marathon (42.195 km)
  • Half marathon (21.1 km)
  • 10K race
  • Fun runs (shorter distances for families and beginners)

Renowned for fostering unity, peace, and solidarity across Lebanon, the Beirut Marathon brings together participants from diverse backgrounds, religions, and political affiliations.

We are excited to invite you to join this year's Fun Walk and Race on November 10 in Santa Monica, California.

Time and place

Please arrive to the event on time, at 8:45 am. You can park under the Santa Monica Pier and walk north towards Malibu.
The exact coordinates of where we are will be shared on Instagram. You will also receive these details a week before the race via text.
