Event description

The Nukus Half Marathon, also known as the Aral Sea Region Heritage Half Marathon, is far more than just a race; it is a deep dive into the rich culture and traditions of the Karakalpak people. This event invites participants to not only challenge themselves physically but to embark on a cultural journey through the heart of the Aral Sea region.

As runners make their way through the course, they will encounter “islands of memory”; unique installations that commemorate the once-thriving cities and villages that dotted the landscape of the Aral Sea area. These artful displays are designed to evoke the history, stories, and spirit of the communities that have shaped the region. Additionally, a lively music program and various forms of entertainment will be set up along the route, providing an authentic taste of the local culture for both participants and spectators alike.

This half marathon presents a rare opportunity to not only test your endurance and strength but also to be inspired by the resilience of a region that has faced immense environmental and social challenges. It's a celebration of heritage, a tribute to forward progress, and an invitation to witness history in motion. Whether you are running for the finish line or cheering from the sidelines, the Nukus Half Marathon is an experience that will leave a lasting impression.
