Sheikh Zayed Road turns into ocean of orange for Dubai Run. Dubai's Crown Prince Sheikh Hamdan leads the group of runners in what is believed to be the world’s largest free fun run.
On Sunday morning, Dubai's Sheikh Zayed Road transformed into a vibrant sea of orange as residents and visitors enthusiastically participated in the iconic Dubai Run. A remarkable 226,000 runners of various ages and abilities took to the arterial road to participate in one of the most awaited features of the Dubai Fitness Challenge (DFC) on November 26.
Dubai's Crown Prince, Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and his team led the group of runners in what is believed to be the world's largest free fun run. He smiled and waved at the initial group of participants, with several individuals jostled to capture his photo. "A big thank you to all 226,000 participants who joined Dubai Run!" Sheikh Hamdan later wrote on X.
