about
run in jordan started in september 2006 with the aim in organizing every month, from september to april (well during winter time), one foot race somewhere in the city of amman, jordan. i call those the Winter Foot Race Series. the project started out from talks with other runners who i meet so often and had to hear their complains that there is nothing to challenge yourself. so here it is! i started this project totally alone and with no budget (zero budget event).
if you like to participate, please check this site regularly to find out where and when the next foot race is on. if possible i try to hold the races at the beginning of each month. but, until now it was not really possible. sometimes i only can give notice one week before but usually it is around 10 days.
i can guaranty that at each foot race you are running on a properly measured distance and get your properly taken running time. sometimes we have a host who will provide a t-shirt. we do not want (at least not for now) to give prices to individuals. There is no budget for race marshals to check on cheaters. we believe in a self-regulatory system where each of the participants is a good example and sports(wo)man with a high spirit. primarily we don’t care about prizes. each of us who runs regularly or not and participate at running event is a winner on his own. we focus on our inner values.
please help promoting this marvelous running project. it lives and succeeds with the spirit of all who participate - as a runner or walker, adult or child, regularly trained or not.
just come, join and run - for the love of running.
