November 3 event at Expo City Dubai gives opportunity to runners of various abilities
Dubai: The Women’s Run 2024, to be run on November 3 at Expo City Dubai, aims to inspire and motivate women from all walks of life to embrace fitness while celebrating women’s strength, achievements and resilience.
This run, supported by Dubai Sports Council and Dubai Fitness Challenge, offers an exciting route through the iconic Al Forsan Park and participants can choose from three different categories, 3km fun run, 5-km circuit and the more challenging 10-km run.
In addition to the main race, participants can enjoy a variety of engaging activities and initiatives leading up to the big day. Every Monday and Thursday, free training sessions will be hosted by community groups like 5:30 Run and At the Park, offering a supportive environment to help women prepare.
Another key highlight of this year’s event is the Women of Substance initiative, showcasing empowering stories from women across various fields. Adding to the excitement, the 2024 edition features a specially composed anthem by UAE’s first Emirati classical singer, Ahmed Al Hosani, which will inspire and energise participants. The anthem will play during the weekly training sessions to build momentum as race day approaches.
