Sharjah Sports Council launches Sahara Indoor Run on August 17

Growing momentum and race details

Now in its second edition after a successful debut last year, the Sahara Indoor Run is expected to attract around 400 male and female participants. The race will feature multiple categories:

• A 1 km race for children (one lap), starting at 7:00 a.m.
• An 8 km race (eight laps) starting at 7:10 a.m.
• A 4 km race (four laps) starting shortly thereafter

Recognition and community spirit

The winners will be honoured at 8:15 a.m. with a specially designed medal shaped like the Sahara Centre logo, inspired by the UAE’s desert landscape, and engraved with the race name in both Arabic and English, along with the year. The event continues to foster a spirit of wellness and community engagement through accessible sports initiatives.
