Marjan Island, Ras Al Khaimah, AE
Event description
Challenge yourself on this beautiful 50km or 100km trail run through the mountain passes, along jeep tracks, through boulder ravines and over spectacular sand dunes of Ras Al Khaimah. It is a tough challenge and requires training, but generous cut-off times (24hrs overall) allow most physically fit, determined and well-prepared runners to get to the finish.
You will carry your food and water (fruit, water and Aqualyte available approx every 10km). CP5 will be your opportunity to eat a hot meal where we will provide hot water for your dehydrated food and we will have hot soup on the go. (Outside assistance is not permitted outside of the checkpoints, but supporters are welcome to assist you at any checkpoint, in particular CP5).
The course will take you on a multi-terrain adventure and take in approx 2500m of elevation over the 100km distance. Checkpoint 5 will be located at approximately 52km.
Make sure you are part of the only single-stage 50km and 100km trail run in the UAE!
