The TriFactory's second annual #RaceThroughHistory, the Saqqara Pyramid Race, was first introduced in 2022, with a simple 5K Race and 1K Fun Run for families. Since then, the race has grown in size and scale, featuring both 5K and 10K distances, with the 2025 edition welcoming almost 2,000 runners from more than 60 nationalities.
The fifth edition of the race, taking place on Friday, February 13th, 2026, will see an even bigger change - the Saqqara Pyramid Race will now become the Saqqara Half Marathon!
Featuring three distances - 21K, 10K, and 5K, runners will be able to experience the Saqqara Necropolis and all of its beauty and ancient mystery. 21K and 10K runners will even be able to run as far as the nearby Abusir Pyramids, utilising newly opened interlock surface roads that offer unparalleled access to this amazing historical venue.
As always, the Start Line, Finish Line, and Awards Ceremony will be right beneath the 5,000 year old Step Pyramid of Saqqara, giving runners and spectators the chance to rest in the shadow of one of the world's most legendary monuments.
Sign up now for the Saqqara Half Marathon and get ready to #RaceThroughHistory on Friday, February 13th, 2026!
