Reach for those running shoes peeps: registration is now open to the Expo 2020 Dubai Run.
This race like no other will have runners streaming through the brand-new streets of Expo 2020 Dubai on 3km, 5km and 10km routes.
Circuits will take runners past 192 awe-inspiring pavilions on Friday November 19, presenting the opportunity to cross the finish line at one of the world’s biggest ever cultural events.
Each distance will have different running slots depending on your age, with the tiniest tots and slip-stream veterans (they run this game, don’t ya know?) all catered for.
Feeling out of shape? There’s still time to dust off the cobwebs before getting under starter’s orders.
