WHERE DESERT GRIT MEETS OCEAN FLOW.

NEW EVENT LOGO. NEW EVENT SLOGAN. 🌊🏃‍♂️

The Bachmus Coastal Marathon returns for its 3rd year on 3 October 2026, unveiling a bold new identity inspired by the route, the runners and the raw beauty of Namibia’s coastline.

Introducing our new event slogan:

WHERE DESERT GRIT MEETS OCEAN FLOW.

The desert represents grit.
The strength to keep going when the road gets tough.
The discipline, endurance and resilience every runner carries within them.

The ocean represents flow.
The rhythm of the run.
The freedom of movement.
The calm, focus and energy that takes over when everything finally clicks into place.

And along the breathtaking B2 coastal road between Swakopmund and Walvis Bay, those two worlds meet.

A road where runners experience the power of the ancient Namib Desert beside the endless Atlantic Ocean.
A route that challenges you, rewards you and stays with you long after the finish line.

Same iconic route.
Same unforgettable atmosphere.
A bold new era for the Bachmus Coastal Marathon.
