Sharjah24: The Sharjah Sports Council will organise two community athletic events on Saturday, May 31, and Sunday, June 1: Global Running Day and World Bicycle Day, respectively. Both events will take place on Sharjah's Al Hira Corniche Beach as part of the Council's continuing community fitness and engagement initiative. The organisers anticipate at least two thousand participants, building on last year's strong turnout.

Global Running Day–May 31

The running competition will take place on Al Hira Corniche and last an hour and a half, beginning at 5:45 a.m.

Participants will get commemorative medals with the event's name and date in Arabic and English. The medals are spherical in design, representing the globe, with figures running around it—an icon of global participation in sport and a fitting homage to Global Running Day.

World Bicycle Day, June 1

The following day, the cycling tour will last two hours and begin at 6:00 a.m. Medals for the day are designed in the shape of a bicycle encircling the globe to represent the spirit of World Bicycle Day and global unity through riding.
