    Second Diplomatic Race - November 2017 Second Diplomatic Race - November 2017
     
     
    ​Scheduled to begin at 09:30 on November 5 2017, the race will have two routes: a 10 km. route for runners and a 3 km. route for walkers. The race will start at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and will end at Sacher Park.
     A joint initiative of Israel's Foreign Ministry and Jerusalem municipality's division of sports, the event is regarded as a different, innovative way of conducting diplomacy between countries. While diplomats usually meet each other in air-conditioned offices dressed in business attire, today the participants in the diplomatic race will be wearing sporting clothes and trainers, and will be able to enjoy Jerusalem’s beautiful and unique scenery at their own pace. 

    The registration is open for foreign diplomats and correspondents. ​To register please fill out this form​ and send it to diplomaticrace@gmail.com. ​
