  • Nicolas Anelka enjoyed a stellar career in the game.

    Do you think you’ve got quicker feet than former Arsenal, Real Madrid, Liverpool and Chelsea star Nicolas Anelka?

    Now is your chance to put your skills to the test against the man himself and prove you’re quicker.

    Next month at the Fairmont The Palm Dubai, go head-to-head against the retired France legend and see if you can better his score of 350 steps in 30 seconds (watch here). That’s right, you only have half a minute to surpass his tally at the hotel’s PRAMA by Pavigym Studio.

    The ‘fast feet’ training routine isn’t as easy as it looks, and in truth, Anelka makes it looks easy.

    Nevertheless, celebrity coach and personal trainer Meddy, who hosts regular fit boxing classes at the resort, is inviting you to try out the state-of-the-art interactive fitness studio session as part of Fairmont The Palm’s BE.YOUR.BEST brand promise.

    The #AnelkaChallenge is open to the public, therefore, anyone can come and have a go but you first need to secure your spot via the hotel’s Facebook page or contact email below.

    So, what is the incentive to beat the 39-year-old former footballer and Dubai resident?

    There’s a huge one. The top three scorers or ‘fastest feet’ are in with a chance of winning some amazing prizes, including a two-night stay within the hotel’s presidential suite, plus an array of fitness class, spa treatment and other prizes.

    On the evening of Thursday April 12 itself, meet and greet opportunities will be available with Anelka as the Frenchman watches to see who can eclipse his record!

    Snacks and refreshments will also be provided throughout and participants are urged to use the #AnelkaChallenge and #FairmontThePalm hashtags on social media.
