Madinaty is a city of international standards right here in Egypt. It is a fully-integrated and modern city whose design focuses on providing all present and future requirements of its inhabitants and visitors.

Madinaty is not simply about residential villas and apartment buildings; it is about providing a modern lifestyle for its residents where they can find everything they can possibly need, including vast green areas, golf courses, educational institutions, sports and social clubs, hospitals, business centers, and entertainment facilities. Madinaty has a strong focus on sports for its residents, which coupled with the above, makes it an amazing destination for a world-class half marathon

​

As the host of this sports event, Madinaty's world-class landscape and urban planning will be a key feature of the race experience. With a residential population exceeding 300,000 people, the turnout for the Madinaty Half Marathon is expected to be in the thousands, and Madinaty's broad avenues and tree-lined streets will easily be able to accommodate them all. 

 

Due to its private nature and strong on-site security & facility management capabilities, Madinaty is able to close down roads and dedicate them specifically for runners on the day of the event, offering an experience exactly like top marathons organised across the world.
