Burj2Burj Half Marathon 2024

On the 22nd of June 2022 at one minute to midnight, coaches and athletes from InnerFight Endurance ran the Burj to Burj fastest known time route. The idea was to link two of the most iconic buildings in Dubai whilst doing something that we loved - distance running!

InnerFight Endurance at the Burj2Burj Half Marathon 2024

Skip forward to the 21st of January 2024. At 05:59AM, 3000 runners lined up to take on the Burj to Burj half marathon. Billed as UAE’s fastest and most scenic Half Marathon, the iconic route takes runners from the Burj Al Arab to the Burj Khalifa.

‍

Amongst the 3000 participants were 32 InnerFight runners and coaches, grateful and ready for the challenge. There was also big support from the InnerFight and Dubai’s endurance communities, who gave up their time to support and encourage the runners.

‍

Dubai is an innovative and fast-moving city, so naturally there are always new running and endurance events being started. Some return and some don’t. With such a strong backing from the local running community, an iconic route and an ideal slot in the UAE race calendar, this race is something special.

‍

Everyone at InnerFight Endurance is looking forward to running it again next year! If you’d like to join us at this race in 2025 (or any of the upcoming events this year), get in touch at endurance@innerfight.com!
