This morning I ran the Dubai Desert Summer Scorcher 10K. It was hot and early! The race started at 6:00 am and was about 35 minutes outside of the city. The course was on the roads surrounding the Sevens Stadium. The stadium is used for rugby, they also have cricket pitches and it looked (and smelled) like there is also a camel race track. It was great to get out and run a race but I was a little disappointed in the course. The way it was advertised I thought it would be a little more scenic but it was mostly cleared desert instead of natural desert land. Thank goodness our new car has GPS Navigation unit in it...I would probably have never found (or attempted to find) the stadium without it!
