“Great event + great organisation - Would have liked more frequent timing updates. With chip timing would have thought hourly or every couple of hours would be doable. But this is a minor comment overall event was great. All the effort by organisers throughout the 24 hours was very much appreciated. ”

“Another first class event from Urban Ultra! - The personal touch from Louise and Pascale is something special. It was evident how much time they had spent preparing for the event and getting the course ready, but they continued to support all the runners throughout the race with food, fluids, pep talks or whatever we needed. Thank you!”

“Tough and mental race but rewarding - A very tough race. The course was hard to deal with as it was an uneven loop of 500m but this is where the challenge is. Amazing organisation and support. Prepare to be challenged. Everyone who finishes is a winner for sure.”

“Favorite event in Dubai so far - I've taken part in a few 24 hour races before and obviously enjoy them as I somehow keep entering whenever they pop up! The Urban Ultra Insomnia 24hr proved to be a great event, a deceptively difficult course with the paving/sand transitions and the 'self supported' station made managing rest time crucially important and the will and determination of all the participants was simply incredible! almost perfect with the only suggestion to have a live screen with leaderboard and lap counting :)”

“UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE! - I am not an Ultra runner so this was just something to tick off the bucket list. I would not do it again as I did not enjoy it due to my fitness and susceptibility to blisters but also perversely loved every minute, we raised loads of money for charity and was a great team effort. The 2 ladies who organised it were awesome in every sense. Very glad I did it and it is over and done with!”

Comment from the Event Organizer - 15.12.2014
“Hi David. Can I ask why the poor ratings for the registration, pack collection, timing and communications? The times were posted within 30 mins of the event finishing. The packs are conveniently located at AdventureHQ, the centre of Dubai, and we sent several emails and facebook messages with regard to the event. Can you let us know so that we can try to improve in these areas?”
