The course is primarily flat as it follows the Zuari River, though there are minor undulations and one notable incline near the 5km/15km mark depending on the loop.

Question 3

Will there be hydration stations?

Accepted Answer

Yes, hydration stations are placed every 2km providing water, electrolytes, and occasionally local oranges or salt.

Question 4

What is the start time for the full marathon?

Accepted Answer

The full marathon usually starts at 04:30 to avoid the midday Goa heat, followed by the Half Marathon at 06:00.

Question 5

Is there a gear drop at the venue?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a secure baggage counter is available at the Chicalim Sports Complex. Use the tag provided in your race kit.

Question 6

How do I get to the start line on race morning?

Accepted Answer

Taxis are the most reliable way. It is highly recommended to pre-book a taxi through your hotel the night before as ride-hailing apps like Uber/Ola do not operate in Goa (use the GoaMiles app instead).
