13 Shangri La Team Members Take on Tbilisi Marathon 2026
Thirteen employees from Shangri La Casino Tbilisi took part in Tbilisi Marathon 2026, representing the company across the 10 km race and half-marathon.
The team delivered some strong results. The fastest Shangri La runner completed the 10 km course in 52 minutes and 6 seconds, while two more colleagues crossed the finish line in 58 minutes and 6 seconds and 59 minutes and 33 seconds. One member of the team stepped up to the half-marathon, taking on the longest distance of the day.
In total, 13 Shangri La employees joined hundreds of runners at one of Tbilisi’s major annual sporting events.

For the team, however, the day was about more than finishing times. Taking part together gave colleagues a chance to challenge themselves, support one another and share an experience far removed from their usual working day.
Traditionally, Helen Keane, General Manager of Shangri La Casino Tbilisi, commented on the team’s participation:
“We are very proud of everyone who represented Shangri La at this year’s marathon. Some were chasing a time, others simply wanted to challenge themselves and complete the distance. What matters is that they took it on together and supported each other along the way.”

Participation in the Tbilisi Marathon has become a welcome tradition for the Shangri La team. After another successful race this year, there is already plenty of motivation to return to the starting line again.
