The 5th Beyond Zero Half Marathon 2020 will be divided into the main half marathon, a ten kilometre run open to individual and corporate competitors, a five kilometre family run and a special category for expectant women.

The 5th Beyond Zero Half Marathon 2020 will also include a race for the blind that will be headlined by participants from Kenya's special olympics team.
