Arrival Time: Entry from 5:30 AM, and the race starts at 7:00 AM
This November, lace up your trainers and take part in a once-in-a-lifetime running experience on the iconic grounds of the Dubai Airshow as part of the Dubai Fitness Challenge (DFC). The Runway Run features a 1.8 km loop through the heart of the Airshow’s Dubai World Central venue, surrounded by more than 200 aircraft displays.
Open to the public for the very first time, this event brings together community, wellness, and world-class aviation for one unforgettable morning. The Runway Run welcomes all ages and abilities, and families are encouraged to join.
This is a non-competitive social run, so expect energy, camaraderie, and fun rather than official timings or prizes. An exclusive event t-shirt giveaway will be given away, whilst stocks last!
