The Dubai Marathon, the oldest international long-distance running event in the Middle East, gets an exciting new update for those willing to test their grit against the desert sun.

EXEED by Al Ghurair, a premium vehicle brand presented by AG Auto in the UAE, has become the official race sponsor of the 23rd Dubai Marathon taking place on Sunday, January 7 2024. And all online registered marathon participants will be automatically registered to enter a raffle to win a ruby red EXEED LX Comfort SUV.

“The chance to win a new car is a fantastic opportunity for every single runner who signs up to take part in the first big marathon of 2024,” said Peter Connerton, Race Director of Dubai Marathon. “We are delighted that EXEED by Al Ghurair has joined us a race sponsor this year.”

Although this is technically not a part of the November 30×30 Fitness challenge, we’re grouping this in that category because if you want to participate we advise that you start preparing now – your lungs are going to need it.
