The race offers options for runners of all skill levels. The Kids’ Run offers an introduction to running for children aged six to 12.

For those seeking a moderate challenge, the 10 km AlUla Oasis race is a perfect fit, while the Elephant Rock 23 km race caters to more experienced runners.
Amongst the toughest races of the event is the 50 km Al-Mejdar for athletes aged 18 and older, designed to test endurance and skill. Finally, the 100 km Hegra ultra-marathon offers the ultimate challenge for seasoned athletes, pushing their physical limits through one of the most scenic and demanding courses in the region.
On day one, participants will register, collect race equipment, and attend a briefing before the races begin. The first day will also feature family-friendly events and races after sunset. Day two will see the more challenging races - 10 km, 23 km and the ultra-marathon - culminating in an awards ceremony to honour the winners.
