This is a timed race with rankings and awards for top finishers in different age groups. So, challenge yourself, celebrate fitness, and stand up for a worthy cause in a vibrant, supportive atmosphere.
Mark your calendars for October 20, as Miral, the mastermind behind some of Abu Dhabi’s most immersive destinations, teams up with the Abu Dhabi Sports Council to host the annual Miral Pink Run on Yas Island.
It’s all about promoting the importance of early detection and prevention of breast cancer, as well as honouring the resilience of those affected by the disease. And this year’s run is a celebration of community health and wellness.
Why Awareness is important?
Every single person should know their breasts and how to self-examine them. When a person takes a shower, they should know how their breasts typically feel. This can vary during menstruation, when the breast may feel a little more dense. Or, some of the time, breasts may have nodules that may come and go.
It’s important for a person to know what’s going on with their breasts, and to be vigilant about any type of changes that may appear. If they are unsure how to do this, or what feels normal to them, the simplest thing is to meet with a healthcare provider. The recommendation is to start mammogram screenings at age 50. For women with a family history of breast cancer, or for people that have BRCA gene mutations, it’s recommended to start ultrasounds earlier than that and have frequent consultations with a healthcare provider.
You can also purchase a pink race belt to wear from the registration team when you collect your race pack (AED40) with these proceeds also going to this great cause.
Participants can choose from either a 3km, 5km or 10km run starting and finishing inside the Zayed Football Stadium.
