Participation Terms & Race Fees

Unlike most races, Spartanion Tel Aviv is entirely organized and operated by dedicated volunteers — runners and supporters passionate about advancing the world of ultra-running in Israel.

We’ve built a highly professional event that has already seen four official world records set on its course. It is, to date, the only athletics event in Israel where world records have been broken.

Because of this high standard, and to maintain the event’s integrity, most race categories require runners to meet specific qualification criteria based on distance and time.

Not sure if you qualify? Feel free to contact us — we’re happy to assist and clarify.
