There is a motivation behind every athlete; a reason that propels them forward through every kilometre and compels them to cross the finish line. adidas is encouraging the running community in the UAE to come together and share their motivation using #WhyIRunDubai.
To kick-start the campaign ahead of the Dubai Marathon, three adidas ambassadors including World Record breaker and personal trainer, Lee Ryan, and long distance runners, Anne-Marie Hyryläinen and Brahim Slimani, have shared their story.
“I run because it challenges me to keep moving forward no matter what obstacles are thrown in your way,” says Lee Ryan, a three time Guinness World Record breaker. “I’m excited to take on the Dubai Marathon this year. With so many renowned runners taking part, finding the energy where you need it most will be crucial!”
