Yas Indoor Mall launches pink run for breast cancer awareness

Head to Abu Dhabi’s largest mall to support a worthy cause

Fit-fam. If you’ve been spending your weekends crushing your goals at Yas Mall Indoor Run, you’ll know how rewarding it is to cross the finish line. Now, Yas Mall Indoor Run is launching a special pink run to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

On October 1, runners will be invited to take part in the Indoor Pink Run, which will aim to bring the community together to raise awareness of the importance of regular check ups and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

It might be hot outside, but that doesn’t mean your training has to fall behind. Now, you can get your endorphins going, and support a wonderful cause, under one roof.

The Yas Mall Indoor Run, which is now in its fourth edition, relaunched last month after a two-year hiatus. Taking place on the ground floor of Abu Dhabi’s largest mall, the Indoor Run has been a popular event every weekend.

Whether you’re a long-distance runner or a sprinter giving Usain Bolt a run for his money, there’s something for everyone. Like the Yas Mall Indoor Run, the special Indoor Pink Run will also offer various distances, including 2.5 kilometres, five kilometres and 10 kilometres, so you can go head-to-head with your friends and family.

The looped course begins on the ground floor of Yas Mall and finishes in the town square. If you’re not too keen on racing, you can use the track to increase your step count this summer by enjoying a leisurely walk in cool air conditioning comfort.

Everyone participating in the Yas Mall Indoor Pink Run will receive a bespoke Breast Cancer Awareness medal, access to the event’s photo album with free downloads and even a finisher’s certificate. Plus, Dh10s per paid entry will be donated to Brest Friends Foundation.
