Netanya Beach Race returns: Friday, December 4, with start and finish at Poleg Beach

The Netanya Beach Race will be held again this year, on Friday, December 4. The race is organized by the Netanya Municipality and its sports department, and produced by the Shvoong company. The start and finish area will be at Poleg Beach, one of the city's nine declared bathing beaches.

The main event is a competitive 10 km run that combines a fast road section with a run on the seashore. Alongside it there will be a competitive 5 km heat along the road and the beach, which also suits those looking for a more accessible route, and includes a section inside a nature reserve.

For children, teenagers and families there will be community runs of 2 km and 1.2 km, so that even someone who does not run regularly can take part. The different routes allow participation at every level, from competitive runners to families with children.

The route passes through some of the city's most beautiful spots and along the coastline, combining urban road running with running on sand. In the finish area at Poleg Beach there will be a sports and healthy lifestyle fair, with music and food stands, and all finishers will receive a medal.

Registration opened with the announcement in August, at early-registration prices for a limited time, through a registration link of the production company. Current prices and dates should be checked on the race's registration page before registering. When the announcement was published, the early-registration period was set at only ten days.
