Every year, DMRR awards attractive cash prizes for winners of different categories. Similarly, this  year, Dhiraagu will be awarding a total prize pool of MVR 256,000 amongst the winners as well.  

This year marks the 15th edition of this largest and most anticipated run in the Maldives, scheduled to  be held on 25 October 2024 (Friday) at Central Park, Hulhumale’.  

“Dhiraagu Maldives Road Race is the largest running event held in the Maldives, focused towards  promoting a healthy lifestyle and building a culture of competitive running and mass participation runs.  This year, as we mark the 15th edition of DMRR, we are proud to introduce yet another new component  to the event; the Office/Resort category. With this new category, our aim is to give people working at  different resorts and offices the opportunity to participate as a team and represent their organisation  at a competitive level,” stated Mohamed Mirshan Hassan, Director, Brand and Marketing  Communications at Dhiraagu. 

DMRR is the first and only international run held in the Maldives, listed in the Association of  International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS) World Running calendar with a World Athletics certified race route. The event brings together runners from all over the world with participants from  27 countries running last year as well.  

Similar to previous years, DMRR 2024 is dedicated towards the social cause of child protection, one  of the key focus areas of Dhiraagu’s corporate social responsibility programme. The run will provide  a platform for NGOs working in the area of child protection to raise awareness and funds for their  cause.  

Dhiraagu will award five grants of total MVR 200,000 amongst the top five endorsed NGOs nominated  by participants at the time of registration to help kick-start their planned activities. In addition to this,  Dhiraagu will be donating MVR 100 from each participant registration and all proceeds from special  bib number sales in equal shares to the endorsed partner NGOs. 

Last year, Dhiraagu awarded total  MVR 635,000 amongst all the endorsed partner NGOs of DMRR.  

Registrations for DMRR 2024 are now open and will be closed once the limit of 4,000 participants is reached.
