InnerFight Endurance at the Dubai Creek Striders Half Marathon 2024

The team at InnerFight Endurance have been attending this incredible and unique half marathon in force for a long time. Athletes who know this area well, either from growing up in it or running with the famous Dubai Creek Striders run club, make lots of noise about it and urge new members to sign up.

‍

The course has a lot of steps, curbs and even underpasses. The route takes you through a narrow souk with pedestrians an arm’s reach away. Workers will gaze as you race past. Sharp turns will cause you to slow right down and test the legs to speed back up.

‍

You’ll curse the final few kilometers as you cross over a roundabout and deal with the final few speed bumps as you head back towards the yacht club.

‍

The only people ever disappointed at the finish line are the ones who came to the race with the wrong mindset. You must come to this race with a smile on your face, the only goal being to soak it all in – the sights, the smell and even the history of Dubai.

‍

Embrace it! Feed off the energy! No one cares about your time here – all that matters is your smile as you hit the last roundabout and surge towards the finish line!
