About this event

6th December | 6:15AM | Gatambe Grounds

A majestic hill capital steeped in history, where ancient kingdoms meet colonial elegance—Kandy invites you to run through its timeless streets.

From the legacy of the Temple of the Sacred Tooth Relic to the serene beauty of Kandy Lake, every step takes you through stories of glory, resilience, and heritage. The route flows past the lush landscapes of Royal Botanic Gardens, Peradeniya and iconic colonial-era architecture that define the soul of the city.

December brings a cooler climate and a festive charm, with the spirit of Christmas adding a unique atmosphere to your run. Beyond the course, enjoy vibrant street cafés, fresh Ceylon tea, and moments that take you down memory lane.

Kandy is not just culture—it’s also a powerhouse of sporting excellence. Legends like Muttiah Muralitharan and Kumar Sangakkara hail from this proud city, while its rugby culture continues to thrive at both school and club level.
