Run the Wall April 25 - 27
Run where you are
Run, walk, ride or swim, wherever you are, in solidarity with Palestine and those demanding Palestinian rights around the world. Run any distance you choose from 5km to 55km, it doesn’t matter how far — it’s taking part in solidarity that counts.
It has been an amazing three days. It has confirmed how many people worldwide hold our brothers and sisters in Gaza and the West Bank in their hearts. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Jean, UK (Run The Wall Spring 2024 participant)
On Your Marks... Get Set...
On Friday 25th April, 10,000 Palestinian runners were due to be pounding the streets of Bethlehem for the 10th annual Palestine Marathon. However, the marathon has been postponed due to the current situation in the West Bank, so it’s more important than ever that we run in solidarity with our friends in Palestine over the same weekend.
