“ Hello I just wanted to say a tremendous thank you so much; it was my first RAK Half Marathon and had beyond fabulous time. Guys, you rock! Amazing organization, brilliant marshals and volunteers, crowd support and MUSIC wow it was amazing. Can’t wait for next year :) ”
“ Thanks for a great race! Organization was perfect, weather was nice and I enjoyed the entire race. Only some suggestions for next year: Bring more supporters (not an easy one), more music, around some of the empty areas, it really helps to cheer up runners.’ Arch of showers/sprinklers’ I've seen this in other races, it is some kind of arch on one side of the track and you can go under it to get some fresh water, sponges in the water stations.
CONGRATULATIONS to the organizers and all the crew who made it possible. You did a GREAT job! I cannot wait to see the pictures. ”

“ Just been to the poshest pre-race Pasta Party ever. Live fresh pasta stations, wonderful selection of Italian pasta dishes and gorgeous salads. Free beer, soft drinks and water, and desert.......and to cap it all lots of waiters fetching and carrying and clearing. Like being in a smart restaurant, especially given the gorgeous surroundings. Bellissimo! ”

“ I think it’s the best HM in the Middle East at least, tremendously organized, lots of details and information everywhere including the continuously updated website with the great new features, and interactive communications on Facebook, I assume organizers are very serious about it, couldn’t even find any mistake, I have done it last year as well, and definitely will run in 2012 also. ”
