Some runs are better shared. Having people to meet can make an early alarm easier, and a familiar face beside you can help on the days when training feels like a lot.
Across Dubai and the UAE, run clubs bring people together throughout the year. You can find social runs, sessions to help you work towards a goal and groups where newcomers are welcome. Several offer free community runs, so joining in doesn't have to mean paying for a membership.
If you're training for Burj2Burj, a club can also help you find people working towards the same distance. Here are a few communities to get to know.
Pick a session that fits your current running, then check the club's latest post for the meeting point, distance and pace groups. Some free runs let you simply turn up; others ask you to register or join a group first.
If you're unsure where you fit, send them a message. Let them know how far you're comfortable running and ask which session they'd suggest. You can go on your own and introduce yourself when you arrive.
Your next Burj2Burj training run could be the one where you meet the people you'll keep running with.
