---

An annual 10-kilometre road running event held in late November in Addis Ababa, it is Africa's largest road race, taking place at high altitude and featuring a challenging course at 8,000 feet above sea level, with more than 50,000 competitors.

Why attend here

Come for the race and stay for the energy of Addis Ababa in late November, when the dry season brings crisp, sunny days perfect for exploring. Wander the bustling Merkato for spices and handwoven textiles, then refuel with a hearty plate of kitfo or a traditional coffee ceremony — a ritual that feels especially right in Ethiopia's cool, high-altitude air.
