The Jordanian Society for Marathons (Run Jordan) successfully organized the first edition of the Madaba Mosaic Race 2026, which was held under the patronage of His Royal Highness Prince Firas bin Raed. Around 2,000 male and female runners from various nationalities and age groups participated in the event, competing on two distances: 10 km and 5 km. The routes started from historical landmarks such as Mount Nebo and Al-Faisaliah Mosque, leading to the Madaba Visitor Center. The event aimed to promote sports tourism and highlight the city's cultural and historical heritage. The race yielded positive results, with Ahmad Samour winning the 10 km men's category and Hiba Hammoud winning the women's category. The Society emphasized that the event reflects the importance of integrating sports with tourism and culture to support local communities, with plans to continue organizing similar activities across different governorates in Jordan.
