Run Through Serenity, Embrace the Spirit of Bhutan.
The Bhutan International Marathon was the culmination of the BOC’s and Ms. Terri Schneider’s vision to organise and promote a unique and special running event in Bhutan that would help promote Bhutan, not just as a trekking and cultural destination, but also as a destination for adventure and sports. Such an event, we hoped, would put Bhutan on the map as a destination for sports and we hope that we will be able to add value to the tourists and expatriates visiting and living in Bhutan.
Further it was also our hope that organizing such events in Bhutan would, through the visibility and buzz that such events usually create, promote the sport of running among our youth, and also give them the opportunity to compete with runners from around the world.
Now in its 11th edition, the Bhutan International Marathon has developed into a powerful intersection of personal resolve and natural splendor. It challenges runners to not just finish the race, but to also discover but the depths of their own perseverance amidst the serenity of Bhutan’s landscape. This event is not just a race; it is, in a lot of ways, a journey that celebrates our shared humanity and the beauty of purposeful movement.
We do hope that all of you will have an unforgettable experience, and one that you will cherish for all times to come. We have tried to build a race built on heart and soul, our hearts and our soul and we have put in our best, to share our love of our country and running with all of you.
