Races/Qatar
Training plan for the Doha Marathon by Ooredoo
Friday, 15 January 2027 in Doha, Qatar. That is 14 weeks away.
When a build would have to start
ALLUNGO plans a block of a length that suits the distance, then works backwards from race day. For this one:
Half — a 14-week build, 4 runs a week
Starts the week of 5 October 2026 — 0 weeks in hand.
Marathon — a 18-week build, 5 runs a week
Not enough room left for the full build.
Too close? The next one
The organiser runs this the third Friday in January, which puts the 2028 race on Friday, 21 January 2028. That date is not announced yet, so check it before planning to it — but a Marathon build for it would start the week of 13 September 2027.
On the day
Distances: Half, Marathon. Entries, course and timings are dohamarathonooredoo.com’s. They decide when entries open and close, and whether the race runs at all — ALLUNGO sells nothing here and takes nothing from them.
The date here is the one the organiser published, rechecked every 1 hour against the list. Confirm it on their site before you enter.
