FOREX.com, part of StoneX Group, has been announced as the Official Online Trading Partner of Burj2Burj 2026 Half-Marathon. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to long-term performance, discipline, and resilience, values that define both endurance sport and successful trading.
Kicking off on February 8th, 2026 at 6:30AM, the 21.1km race brings together ambition, resilience, and forward momentum from Jumeirah Emirates Towers to Sunset Beach, Running past Dubai’s most recognizable landmarks, and illustrating perseverance, precision, and long-term commitment, principles that strongly resonate with FOREX.com and its global community of traders.
Much like endurance sport, sustainable trading success is built over time. Runners rely on structure, data, and training; traders rely on reliable execution, transparency, and disciplined risk management. In both pursuits, progress is driven not by shortcuts but by preparation, adaptability, and a clear long-term strategy.
The partnership brings to life FOREX.com’s three-pillar promise to traders: to provide them with a robust, trusted trading infrastructure; to foster a mindset focused on long-term performance rather than on short-term noise; and to stand alongside them in environments that value preparation, endurance, and results.
Commenting on the partnership, Ritu Singh, Regional Director, StoneX Financial LTD, said: “Partnering with Dubai’s Iconic Half-Marathon – Burj2Burj reflects what FOREX.com stands for: long-term performance, discipline, and resilience. Whether in markets or in sport, success is built through preparation, consistency, and trust, and Burj2Burj perfectly embodies those values. As part of StoneX Group, a global financial services organization with decades of market experience, we are deeply committed to Dubai and the wider region, continuously supporting initiatives that champion growth, excellence, and responsible participation while bringing together community, excellence, and ambition.”
From his end, Warrick Mac Nicol, Founder & CEO, Worlds Iconic, commented: “We are thrilled to partner with FOREX.com as our Official Online Trading Partner for the 2026 Burj2Burj half-marathon.
