Where can you run in Dubai?
If you are a running enthusiast and love being outdoors then Dubai is the right place for you. We’ve put together a list of our 5 favorite running spots to visit this season.
Jumeirah Corniche
The number one spot is the Jumeirah Corniche which has one of the longest running tracks in Dubai, making it a great location for those of you looking for an extra challenge. Starting from Dubai Marine beach resort and stretching to the Burj Al Arab hotel, you can enjoy a 14 km run surrounded by beautiful beaches and the iconic Burj Al Arab as a backdrop.
Al Barsha Park
If you like corniche trails then you will love Al Barsha Park. The springy surface of running tracks reduces impact when you run, so landings are softer every time your feet hit the ground. The trails are marked along the way so you can note the distance you covered. This is great for motivating you to run further and achieve your best performance every time you hit the track.
Al Ittihad Park
Al Ittihad is a great choice for families – bring your kids, pets, friends and have a great day out. Located next to the Fairmont hotel, this 3 km track is not only great for running, you can also combine your cardio session with some weight training on the pull-up bar. Also pet friendly, you can take your dog for a run and end your workout at a nearby cafe for a healthy post-workout smoothie.
Beach, JBR
If you stay in Marina or JBR you have a great running track right on your doorstep at JBR beach. After enjoying the track, you can choose from a large number of cafes or restaurants to recharge after your run. Sponge tracks are great for low-impact exercise and are a great way to train if you’re preparing for a big race. You’ll also find an outdoor gym, with a variety of fitness machines for everyone to use – and it’s all free! JBR can get very busy during rush hour, so it is recommended that you leave early in the morning and make this your favorite place for a morning run.
Bay Avenue Park
Bay Avenue Park is perfectly located for everyone living in the Business Bay and Downtown areas. The track stretches for 5 km, surrounded by Dubai’s high-rise cityscape and views of the iconic Burj Khalifa. There is a skate park nearby and a variety of exercise machines to mix up your running routine. You’ll also find plenty of restaurants nearby, so you can refuel after your run.
