Run the Falls, Feel the Thunder

A Spectacular Success!

The Victoria Falls Marathon 2025 was nothing short of incredible! With 5,000 runners across the
42km full marathon, 21km half marathon, 10.5km x 2 relay, and 7km fun run, athletes from all over the
world joined in to experience a run like no other.

From its modest beginnings in 2006 with just 300 local participants, the event has grown into a
world-class race - crossing the iconic Victoria Falls Bridge in the spray of the Falls and winding
through a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Running for a Cause

Every step taken also supports important local initiatives:

• Greenline Africa – Bringing safe water to communities in and around Victoria Falls.


• Victoria Falls Anti-Poaching Unit (VAPU) – Protecting wildlife and natural resources in this extraordinary region.

Towards a Plastic-Free Future

We’re excited to back Ele Collection, who are pioneering a scalable, sustainable solution to tackle
plastic pollution across Southern Africa’s sensitive ecosystems. Their mission is bold and simple:
remove plastic for good.

Thank You!

To our runners, partners, volunteers, and community – you are the heartbeat of this event. Together,
we’re not only creating unforgettable memories but also making a lasting impact on the people,
wildlife, and environment of Victoria Falls.

Save the date: 5th July 2026 — come run the Falls and be part of the Thunder!
