The Dubai Sports Council is organizing a number of ‘virtual’ sports events during the month of Ramadan, including races, it was announced on Wednesday.
Among the events is the Ramadan Mubarak Challenge, a virtual running event in which all members of a household can participate by registering in either 10 km or 5 km races for men and women, 2.5 km races for kids aged between 12 and 16 and a race for kids under 12.
The challenge will take place on May 15 and May 22, with a 24-hour window – from 9 AM to 9 AM the following day – for participants to race.
After the completion of both events, the results will be combined and the top three winners in each category will receive a medal. All participants will also be sent a digital certificate.
