Running enthusiasts are in for another healthy dose of excitement as the Mai Dubai City Half Marathon makes its way to Yas Island on Sunday, 7 May, for its debut in Abu Dhabi.
The event includes three distance categories – 5km, 10km, and the half marathon 21km – with all distances beginning and ending on the Yas Bay Waterfront.
Experience the joy of running while basking in the captivating views as the race takes runners to a 5km loop on the boardwalk, Etihad Arena, and back along the waterfront.
There are also plenty of activities along the race route to keep the runners cool and entertained. All participants will receive a medal, a delicious breakfast box and a t-shirt.
Getting to the venue has also been made easier for participants from Dubai, with complimentary buses stationed at Dubai Marina, JLT and Burjuman Metro station.
Now in its fifth year, the event makes its Abu Dhabi debut with a new title sponsor following a successful run of four years in Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC).
There are plenty of sporting activities and new sports venues to look forward to in the capital, including the Abu Dhabi Summer Sports (ADSS), a 27,000 square-metre climate-controlled facility where visitors can participate in various sports such as football, padel, basketball, volleyball, and badminton.
