“10km started earlier than the 7:25 communicated in the email prior. There was no proper countdown or air horn to announce the start. I know of 3 other people that said their watches recorded closer to 10.5 than 10km. Would be nice to have signs along the way to indicate how far you've ran. Have a few boxes or bins for empty water bottles just after the water stations. Busses after the race were very poorly organised and we had to wait in the sun for a very long time. ”

“The race itself was great, but the shuttle service to and from was not organised as well as it could have been. I also think the race should have started earlier as the sun was too intense by the time we started running. The speaker system wasn't as clear as it should have been, resulting in many people starting their races late, having not known their races began. The starting times also did not match the starting times communicated in the race guide pdf that was shared.”

“There should be seperate stations for each distance to gather. I ran the 5km and people running other events were blocking the route to the starting point. The end of the race should be at Zayed Sports City because it makes parking less complicated than getting on buses and waiting in lines. Getting out from the race end point was very difficult. Start at Erth and end at Zayed Sports City. The route was not the most scenic of routes for runners. Choose a route that showcases the beauty of Abu Dh”

I was not informed about the finishing procedures, even though I enquired with two volunteers about - 1) the completion of the event so I could get a badge or certificate of participation after my 10K run, 2) the drop-off bus back to the drop-off/pick-up spot near Wahat Al Karama. ”

Better communication is essential as many officials were giving different information.

“Must have signs for buses pick-up point and drop-off locations. Buses should have been preparing road management prior to the pick up time (8.30) not after which created a huge queue of runners waiting for more than 1hr for bus arrival. Last year the 10km began 1 hr late, this year the 10km began 15 mins earlier. There was no proper signage where the race was going to start The goody-bag was exact same as last years Last years T-shirts was more exercise friendly(breathable) No water for 3km race”

Not enough signage to show every km of the race completed. Need to have a better parking situation as the buses took 30-45 mins wait time to go back. Not enough bins for people to throw their empty water bottles so the road was littered, wet and dangerous to run over bottles.”

Leaving from the event at 8.30 we were searching the buses that were going to Zayed city sports and the people of the organization didn’t know either to help us. We stood on the line for an hour to get a bus, priority was given to people that had skipped the line and waited next to the buses.”

In fact there was misinformation and confusion after the event on how and where to get the bus. Eventually getting on the bus, the driver did not follow the direction of the other buses and the traffic controller and went a different route.

“The run was decent, but the organization of the transport was horrendous. Long waits for the bus and especially before the race at the zayed sports city car park. There was no coordination of the busses resulting in pushing and shoving of people rushing to get on any bus. When we followed instructions of the one or two only guides, we ended up at the back of the line despite at first queuing up at the front. Extremely frustrating. ”

“Transportation was a total mess after the race . It took me a lot of efforts to find the pickup point and even after that the bus took 40 minutes instead of 10 min to reach. No proper signages were at the race village . Having run 10 km , the last 2 km were a disaster due to the crowds from other distances meeting all at the same point with very narrow roads and I had to dribble which costed me time to achieve my PB . The overall event organization was not upto UAE standards .”

The ladies calling out which race was next could not be heard as they had no megaphone or mic. The run itself was so crowded it felt like an obstacle race. Fast runners seen physically pushing kids out of the way to get ahead. Grown men cutting corners or beginning to run the wrong way is a huge safety risk. ”
