Golden Mile Galleria on Palm Jumeirah is hosting a new season of its free, immensely-popular Run & Flo workout to mark the start of Dubai Fitness Challenge 2019, with the first event on Saturday, 19 October.

Held on the terraces of Golden Mile Galleria Building 2, adjacent to Al Ittihad Park, the event encourages healthy and active lifestyle through simple workouts, running, yoga and meditation.

It is the first of a wealth of fitness events on Palm Jumeirah for this year’s 30×30 Challenge, which encourages UAE residents and visitors to get active for 30 minutes every day for a month.  A second Run & Flo will be held on Saturday, 16 November.

Run & Flo is hosted in collaboration with Fitness First Middle East (@FitnessFirstME) – one of the world’s leading health and fitness chains. Timings are 4 pm for a warm up, followed by a 45 minute run on the Al Ittihad Park jogging track and an hour of yoga flow. Participants must bring a yoga mat, beach towel and water bottle.

A number of retailers at Golden Mile Galleria are also on board for Run & Flo.  Redwood Nursery (@redwoodpalm) is allowing free access to a safe activity zone for children whose parents participate; Esthetic Sense (@estheticsenseme) is giving complimentary skin analysis and express facial treatments to those who take part; and Emirates Hospital Day Surgery and Medical Centre (@emirateshospital) is offering free blood pressure and blood sugar checks.

Warm Up and Run

Warm Up and Run features a 2.6 km sprint at the scenic Al Ittihad Park running track, adjacent to Golden Mile Galleria. Participants will learn to prepare their bodies and optimise energy prior to the race, guided by experts from Fitness First Middle East.

Yoga Flow

Yoga Flow is a yoga-based, stress-busting stretching session that offers mental and physical relaxation by loosening muscles and boosting stamina and endurance.
