Running the Sands: Marathons in the UAE
Share on WhatsappShare on Linkedin

The United Arab Emirates, with its futuristic skylines and golden deserts, isn’t just a playground for luxury—it’s also a haven for runners. From the bustling streets of Dubai to the serene oases of Al Ain, UAE marathons offer a unique blend of challenge and beauty. Let’s lace up our sneakers and explore the upcoming races:

1. Dubai Marathon

Date: October 15, 2024

Location: Dubai

Dubai Marathon is an iconic event that draws elite athletes and amateur runners alike. The course winds through the city’s landmarks—the Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah, and Dubai Marina. Whether you’re aiming for a personal best or simply soaking in the views, Dubai Marathon is a must-run.

2. Abu Dhabi Marathon

Date: November 19, 2024

Location: Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi Marathon takes you along the Corniche, with the Arabian Gulf on one side and the city skyline on the other. The flat course is perfect for beginners, and the cool November weather adds to the experience. Plus, running past the Emirates Palace feels like a royal stride.

3. Al Ain Marathon

Date: December 10, 2024

Location: Al Ain

Al Ain Marathon offers a unique blend of desert and greenery. The route takes you through Al Ain Oasis, where ancient palm groves provide shade. It’s a chance to connect with nature while challenging your endurance.

4. RAK Half Marathon

Date: February 18, 2025

Location: Ras Al Khaimah

While technically a half marathon, RAK Half Marathon deserves a mention. The fast, flat course along the coast has seen world records broken. If you’re aiming for a personal best, this is the place to do it.

5. Sharjah Marathon

Date: March 25, 2025

Location: Sharjah

Sharjah Marathon combines culture and fitness. The course takes you past historic sites, museums, and the scenic Khalid Lagoon. It’s a chance to run through time and soak in Sharjah’s rich heritage.

6. Fujairah Run

Date: April 8, 2025

Location: Fujairah

Fujairah Run offers a coastal escape. The route hugs the Gulf of Oman, with the Hajar Mountains as a backdrop. It’s a serene, scenic run that rejuvenates both body and soul.


Whether you’re chasing medals or simply enjoying the rhythm of your footsteps, UAE marathons invite you to run the sands and create memories. Mark your calendars, hydrate, and let the desert winds carry you forward! 🏃‍♀️🌅🇦🇪
