The International Adana Kurtuluş Half Marathon takes runners onto city streets in the centre of Adana that are closed to traffic for the morning, with a half marathon, a 10K and a shorter public run all sharing the same start area. The 10K sets off first at 09:00, the half marathon follows at 09:15 and the public run at 09:30, and the ground underfoot is asphalt throughout on a marked city course. Runners enter the event area from 07:30, join warm-up exercises at 08:00 and hand in their bags before the 08:30 deadline, with the move to the start line at 08:45. The day closes with an award ceremony at Merkez Park at 13:00. The race is organised by Adana Metropolitan Municipality and entries are handled online through Hermes Entry.
