Serengeti Safari Marathon
Serengeti Safari Marathon is a marathon and multi-distance running event held in Serengeti, Tanzania, in November. The organiser offers four race categories: a 42 km marathon, a 21 km half marathon, a 10 km race and a 5 km race.
The event takes place inside Serengeti National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is billed as the only marathon in Tanzania run inside the park, across the Serengeti's open plains.
The event combines sport with wildlife viewing and tourism, and participation supports conservation and community development in the region. Its pages do not give a detailed course profile, so terrain and elevation are not described here.
