    It’s time to lace up your trainers once more and hit the pavement one step at a time with Nike+ Run Club sessions.

    Held throughout Dubai, from Sunset Beach to Zabeel Park to Burj Park and Dubai Marina, the popular sessions are back to get runners moving together in the right direction.

    Whether you’re an experienced runner who is used to taking to the open roads daily, or someone who wants to turn running into a hobby, Nike+ Run Club is the perfect way to join like-minded people and receive proper guidance, with Nike coaches helping aspiring percipients get the most out of their ability.

    Three different training sessions will run on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays until the first week of May. Choose from Just Do It Sunday, NRC Speed Run and NRC Ready Set Go, which also has a ladies-only session for dedicated women runners as well.

    If you’re in the mood for a long-distance run, Just Do It Sunday has you covered. Learn how to run not just longer, but more efficiently to increase the kilometres on your distance. Set and achieve your goals with the help of coaches and pacers to prepare you for any upcoming races. The 6-9km session takes place at Dubai Marina at 20:04 on Sundays.
