RAK Half Marathon field swells further Alaric Gomes, Chief Reporter
Dubai: The field for the 2021 Ras Al Khaimah Half Marathon has got even stronger with some more top-level international confirmations for the race.
To be staged on the Al Marjan Island on February 19 with a total prize fund of more than Dh1.21 million, the 15th edition of race has already attracted world champions Kibiwott Kandie of Kenya and Uganda’s Jacob Kiplimo among the early confirmations for next year’s race.
The top two attractions in the field have been dominant over the distance. With his historic record-breaking time of 57.32 minutes, Kandie recently claimed the world record at the Valencia Half Marathon last month.
