"RUN IN CUBA" MARABANA - HAVANA MARATHON
November 16, 2008

2008 Marabana REGISTRATION FORM
AVAILABLE HERE (PDF)

This will be my 5th year registering people for Havana's Marabana Marathon, half marathon, 10 km and 5 km race and each year the numbers have grown attracting more runners from around the world. This year should see a greater number of International runners who come to participate, but more important, to experience this unique country and magnificent city. If you are planning to register I would suggest you do this prior to the closing date of September 30th. Once you register and we have processed your payment, you will receive complete instructions for picking up your Marabana registration kit.  Instructions will be after the closing date. Hotel accommodations available at your request. If you want to be in Old Havana, close to the race start/finish, you must book EARLY. Air available through Associated Travel.

Registering with cuba1tours is the easiest and safest way of assuring your registration for the Havana marathon. Once you register with cuba1tours you are sent explicit instruction for picking up your Marabana kit and you avoid waiting in lines and all the confusion of being in a large crowd.

Hi Tom,
Thank you very much for what was a most wonderful experience. We all thoroughly enjoyed our time in Havana and we intend to repeat some time soon. Hopefully we will field a bigger team next time.
Kindest regards,

Hi Tom,

Just a quick note to say thanks for getting me in the race! Lots of puzzled faces when I went to registration but when I mentioned your name everything clicked into place.No clue how I did as no results on web yet but just pleased to have finished in the HOT and almost solitary second half of the race. Certainly was a novelty having the police stop the the traffic just to let me pass through!

Thanks again,
Tim. Chambers
