Running For Families to Keep Families Running

The amazing Jerusalem Marathon race known for it's magnificent views, and challenging hills is now behind us.  Participating in the Jerusalem  marathon along with thousands of  Israelis and others from around the world from all backgrounds and levels of running  is an extraordinary experience that Kav L'Noar is proud to be a part of.   The friends and spectators who cheer and encourage  the participants along the route add to the special feeling of unity for both runners and their supporters.

Highlights of this year's marathon race:
  • Our team has grown to 100 runners
  • This year once again  the Kav L'Noar Team ran together with IDF Givati soldiers. About 15 boys from 2 of our school groups along with their mentors enjoyed activities with the Sayeret *Givati Soldiers and then were able to run a short distance together. The day was extra special for the group of boys  who are Olim from France and were thrilled to feel a part of the greater Israeli experience.
  • Meir Kaniel and our Rabbis from America enjoyed the incredible energy at the marathon as well as a fabulous Shabbat together. Click here to read more about our Rabbis Can Run campaign
  • Kav L'Noar believes that the foundation of people's lives are shaped by their family life and experiences. In addition to the full, half,10K and 5K marathon runs, this year the Kav L'Noar Team also participated in the 1.7KM family run. What can be a better family experience than running together as a family in Jerusalem  along with the rest of the marathon participants. Watch the best part of the marathon!
