“12k a great addition to the series - The roadworks on the course make certain areas very stony...needed to make sure I missed them and not turn my ankle. Medal as always for this event is disappointing in comparison to other events. Otherwise, well organised and fun. Well done to Warren and his team.”

“An average training event - The choice of track was not ideal. The road had potholes and unconfortamble. It was next to a construction site and at a time there was a botcat and a truck on the track that were emiting fumes. The distances were unusual, 4,8 and 12. I would prefer the usual 5k or 10k. Overall, it was good organisation. ”

“Well Organized event, boring track - The event process from registration, parking to the finish line were very well organized, Kudos to the team responsible. The track however was boring (3) laps on a straight paved road, the Km marker signage could have better marked (seperate marks for 4, 8 and 12 km based on each color)”

“Ok event except lap3 safety was bad - In lap3, there was construction trucks crossing and driving; then vans; then a BMW blocked the final turning. It was dangerous for me and other runners. The cutoff for the race is 1.30hrs, but the constructions trucks were on the track at 50mins. The marshalling team did nothing. ”

“Nice Race - Loved the race it was nice. Area for improvement the water stations to be more organised could have supplied bottles of water instead of glasses of water. Also no directions leading to the race. ”

“Good race with room for improvement! - The start line of the race is congested in parking entrance and does not look so good in the pictures. The start line picture is the only picture for the whole runners and it shall have a better view! One more point, when we reached the venue from the main roads there was no signage to guide to the race location, I saw some people confused at the intersection and wondering which exit to take. Luckily I took the right exit, otherwise I would have missed the race!”

“Very uninspiring, monotonous course - This would have been a great event but running along a 2kms tarmac stretch in the middle of a construction site is as uninspiring as it gets. I thought this event would use some of the setup at Meydan! My Friday run around where I live is more interesting and scenic than this was. Terrible value for money in terms of the event itself, although the organisation was excellent. ”

“A well organised race! - I love that you get a medal. Maybe add to the information about the event that there are no lockers but a patio with security guards over looking the belongings. Would like a 10 K distance as well. A plus for the organisation of the race!”

“OK race - The track was not very nice at all, and it smelled horribly of manure. ”

“Could be better - 1. 0 availability of taxis at venue 2. Not clear where the race was going to take place upon arrival - people mainly grouping with the crowd 3. The course was disappointing - construction going on and fumes blowing during the run 4. Value for money not great 5. Prior to race - registration information was not that easy to find - file names and instructions could have been clearer 6. Otherwise, it was a fun event and should be better next year :)”

“One or three turning points? - In the pre-race info there is shown 3 different turning points for 4, 8 and 12k races, however in the race there is only one common turning point. ”

“Good, fun, family event. - Well organized, good family event. Not the greatest in the UAE and the giveaways could do with some improvement, but overall a decent race which is fun and enjoyable. ”

“It's about the running, not the giveaways! - A good, solid run in which we can test ourselves - that's what we want and that's what we get. Not bothered about the quality of giveaways or medal. Perfectly well organised. Nice job, Warren + team.”

“Great event and another seasons best! - The organisation was as good as ever. Only minor grumble was that the drinking stations were oddly spaced out (in different places to usual). Anyway, I still enjoyed it. Thanks Warren and the rest of the team.”

“Running through a building site and no T shirt - With all the great areas to run it felt like a training run round a building site. Especially after the great race at Mushrif park last week. No T shirt at the end either just a small bag water and fruit. ”
