Dubai's running calendar runs through the summer and into the cooler months, with events spread across July through to November. The scene mixes indoor mall runs — held in air-conditioned comfort during the hotter months — with outdoor road races as temperatures ease later in the season, giving runners of most abilities a reason to enter throughout the year. Events take place across the city, from major retail destinations to open road courses. Use the filters below to sort by date, distance, or location and find the races that fit your schedule.
