This event is a key component of the initiative aiming to transform Dubai into one of the world's most active cities, inspiring individuals to engage in 30 minutes of physical activity daily for 30 days.

Now in its fifth year, the Dubai Run is a global standout, temporarily shutting down the 14-lane Sheikh Zayed Road to traffic for several hours during the event.

Following the triumphant fun run, Sheikh Zayed Road reopened to traffic a few minutes after 10:00 am.
