    • Hundredsd turned out for the event.

    The Pink is Punk event is held in support of Breast Cancer Awareness and looks to help raise the profile of the charity as well as vital funds in the fight against breast cancer.

    This year’s event took place at Anantara Dubai on the Palm with lead sponsorship from the Al Jalila Foundation and organised by Ignite Wellness.

    Participants took onΒ a 600m swim before running on sand and pavement for an additional 3km, while β€œsprint” athletes saw through 400m and 1.6km respectively.

    There was also a fun run that saw people tackle a 3km run.

    Here, we share some of the best social media posts from the event.
