Also that year at the 1988 Arab U20 Athletics Championships, Al-Harazi won a bronze medal in the 5000 m, running 15:50.2 behind winner Alyan Al-Qahtani.[2]

Al-Harazi would go on to represent North Yemen qualifying for four editions of the World Athletics Cross Country Championships, competing at the U20 races in 1989, 1990, and 1993 while contesting the senior race in 1997. Al-Harazi was the 2nd Yemeni finisher behind Awad Saleh Ahmed in his first two showings, and in 1993 he helped Yemen to a 7th-place global team finish.[3]
