The Sustainable City, the Middle East’s first fully operational sustainable community, has joined hands with #TeamAngelWolf, to support the Dubai Fitness Challenge, launched by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of the Dubai Executive Council, with a free, inclusive programme hosted for the community.

At The Sustainable City, all members of the community can get 30 minutes of exercise to prepare for the Dubai Fitness Challenge through the initiative by #TeamAngelWolf. The first session started on Sunday, October 28.

Formed by members of The Watson family, #TeamAngelWolf has been raising awareness on how children of determination can be included in fitness activities. Its ‘Together We Can’ campaign – a free, inclusive social activity held every week – also aims at encouraging healthier lifestyles among the people and uses five specialised disability chairs.

A relaxed, fun social run/jog/walk for all members of the community and of all abilities, the programme offers the opportunity for People of Determination to use specialised chairs or use their own wheelchairs to take part in the 30-minute fitness programme. Parents with babies and toddlers can also take part by walking, jogging or running with their pushchairs. In addition to engaging families with children, the session is open for kids on roller blades or scooters.  Beginners who want to be motivated to take part in the Dubai Fitness Challenge as well as seasoned athletes can participate and celebrate the community spirit while working towards the noble cause of promoting fitness among all.  The session is held in loops, so people can join in and out as they wish at their own pace and ability. It also offers care-giving parents the opportunity to have some rest time.

Committed to nurturing a sustainable lifestyle and community, The Sustainable City promotes events that are designed to promote an active and healthy lifestyle.
