“Fantastic fun run experience! - Well organised and great experience!”

“Happy to do it again - It was fun, nice weather, and as usual Steve and team did great work. few things i believe can be rectified for next time: - The course was 9.5k and not 10k. - their should be some difference between the medals of 2.5k, 5k and 10k. - more sign boards and cones on the track specially at the branches that shall not be used by the runners.”

“Love it - Such a creative course! - I loved the course , the event giveaways and the hospitality of the event organizers. Kudos Team - Thoroughly enjoyed it - Keep it up! ”

“Wonderful Event! - Fantastic event in a spectacular setting. To run in the midst of incredible animals and scenery ensured this opportunity was a success from the start. Congratulations to the organizer, supporting entities and Al Ain Zoo specifically for allowing this event to take place in your attraction and resulting in a truly successful endeavor. I will return next year and hope to bring along more participants to continually grow this run.”

“Great run, a few organizational issues - I enjoyed the route through the zoo and it was a fun morning. There was one spot along the route that was not marshaled where the road split and myself and another runner were confused about where to go. Some sort of drink with sugar (coke/pepsi/OJ) would have been appreciated especially at the finish line. The medal and the T-Shirt were disappointing. No bag drop or anywhere to leave car keys either. Altogether a fun event with a few minor hiccups that could have made it an excellent event.”

“Awesome 10K race very happy I got my PB - Awesome family race, I did 10K and my husband with our 2 boys did 2.5K . We all absolutely enjoyed it and the rest of our day at the Alain Zoo. Thank you very much. ”

“Fun run in the Zoo - Great morning run through the Al Ain Zoo. Was glad they didn't release a lion! Would have had to run faster! Nice to see some events like these in Al Ain. Well organized and very family friendly. Great job Abu Dhabi Sports Council, and race starter Steve.”

“The Zoo just made it so much more special - If given an opportunity to participate again next week,I would do it in a heartbeat. The organizers, crew and the participants were so much fun. There was a slight delay but barely noticeable. The route was so serene and beautiful. The very thought of running in between wild animals made it so much more cooler. Few concerns mentioned below were the medals were too basic but frankly for the price you have, we got a lot more in return. Lots of goodies as well. Thank you for making it so affordable”

“Unique location to host a run. - Neither T-Shirts nor Medals are depicting the unique event at Al Ain Zoo. I'd rather have to pay a higher fee covering for proper finisher medals than none-event-specific medals (and shirts).”

“Great race - This was my first time competing in this race, it was lovely and such an amazing experience to run around the zoo and see all the animals watching you run by. The cafe was nice and lovely idea to open pre race ”

“Unusual race , the medal is useless. - The race is nice and unusual, you can only love it. Everything was fine just a slight delay to start. Some people do this seriously and others more for fun and like to keep the medal as a souvenir. You can clearly say that the medal is pointless, it's a standard one used for all Abu Dhabi races so there's no indication of the race, km ran, or year.. That's very disappointing as it could have a nice one with animals maybe? Hope it changes.”

“No specific category written on medals - Everything was great except for the medal, there’s no year and category written ”

“Nicely and effective - Thanks for the nice event Lovely morning ”

“Really Enjoyed the event, great venue - This event has a really nice family feel to it. The venue is really great and the overall experience was very positive. One minor criticism is the difficulty in finding the results online. Tried the ADSC website but there is nothing there. ”

“Well organised event - PA was great, helped create a fun atmosphere. Loved the run route.”
