Dubai South Ride and Run: Join the Fitness Challenge for a Healthier Future
The Dubai South Ride and Dubai South Run are set to be exciting events contributing to the city’s ongoing focus on health and wellness. Participants not only get the chance to engage in a day of fitness but also to explore the burgeoning Dubai South community.
The Dubai South Ride will kick off from the Dubai South HQ Building, with cyclists navigating the flat, open roads around the area of Al Maktoum International Airport. They can choose between a 40 km route or a more challenging 80-kilometer course.
For those inclined towards running, the Dubai South Run offers multiple route options. Starting from the Dubai South HQ Building, the flat and fast course surrounding Dubai South provides routes of 3 km, 5 km, and 10 km. The entry fee is Dh50 per person.
Ahmed Al Khaja, CEO of Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), emphasized that the Dubai Fitness Challenge aims to inspire a healthier lifestyle for Dubai’s residents and visitors, fostering a culture of fitness and well-being. The events encourage individuals to participate actively in achieving a more vibrant, energetic society.
Registration is currently open for both events, and participants are encouraged to secure their spots early. Each participant will receive a race pack containing essentials like a race bib, t-shirt, timing chip, and a convenient bag drop tag.
Furthermore, prizes and medals will be awarded to the top three positions in both male and female categories across both events, as well as placements within the age categories. It promises to be a day of fun, fitness, and community engagement.
