This year’s Dubai Women’s Triathlon – taking place on November 27 – will be held under the patronage of His Highness Sheikh Mansoor Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Sports Council, and there will be a training camp on November 14 to get participants ready for the event.
Organized by the Women’s Sports Committee of Dubai Sports Council in cooperation with hosts Dubai Ladies Club, the 4th season of Dubai Women’s Triathlon is open to women of all nationalities aged 15 and above, and those interested in taking part can register through Dubai Sports Council’s official website, www.dubaisc.ae.
Participants can choose from three categories: Super Sprint (400m swim, 10km cycling, and 2.5km run), Sprint (750m swim, 20km cycle, 5km run), and the Olympic Distance (1.5km swim, 40km cycle, 10km run).
To get the participants ready for the event, Dubai Ladies Club will be hosting a two-hour complimentary triathlon training camp for registered participants on November 14, starting at 9 am.

The Organising Committee, meanwhile, has invited ladies of all ages and nationalities to participate in the Dubai Women’s Triathlon, which is a unique opportunity for them to experience the thrills of competition and to challenge the limits of their physical endurance in complete privacy.
The Dubai Women’s Triathlon was the first event of its kind for ladies in the Middle East when it launched in 2017, and it has witnessed impressive year-on-year growth since, thanks to the unwavering support it has received from both participants and the authorities.
