Sharjah, AE
Event description
A 2 stage desert adventure run or fat bike. Choose from a 10k or 20k distance. At 7:00pm you will head off to run or ride in the dark with your headlamp challenging course. A 07:00am start gun signals stage 2 of your run or ride in the dunes!

Due to the very recent new laws implemented by DTCM (Dubai Tourism), we will be re-locating this race to a new venue. The exact location and map will be available shortly, however, please note it will now take place in the desert close to Fossil Rock in the emirate of Sharjah.
The race will be equally as challenging, easy to access and offer new and exciting routes for you to explore - in fact this might very well prove to be a bigger and better race than ever!
(The driving time from Dubai is approx 45mins)
