About us

We close roads so Kuwait can run.

Forward DSRPT organises Kuwait’s road races. We handle the permits, the marshals, the water, the timing and the medals, so all a runner has to do is turn up.

How this started

A group of runners who were tired of queues.

The first RUNKUWAIT was 400 people and a paper sign-up sheet. It took two of us three evenings to work out who had paid, and somebody still turned up with a shirt in the wrong size.

So we built the entry system we wanted as runners. One account for a whole family. Sizes and extras chosen per person rather than once for the lot. A place held while you pay, and given back if you walk away.

The races have grown since. The principle has not: everything about entering should take less time than the warm-up.

What we will not do

Three promises.

We do not oversell

Places are counted as they are taken, not after. If the page says 412 left, there are 412 left.

We do not sell you on

Your details go to the timing company and nobody else. No sponsor lists, no resale.

We do not start late

Six years, twelve races, every one off on time. It is the one thing we are smug about.
