Women’s Race She Runs Comes Back to Dubai This November

She Runs is set to return on Sunday, November 2nd at Expo City Dubai, offering women across the UAE a chance to participate in a day of movement and community. Formerly known as the Women’s Run, the event now enters its 12th edition with a broader approach—inviting participants of all fitness levels to join 1 km, 3 km, 5 km, or 10 km races.

More than just a race, She Runs 2025 places greater emphasis on wellbeing, inclusion, and community engagement. In line with the UAE’s declaration of 2025 as the Year of the Community, the event aims to create a welcoming environment for women from all backgrounds, with a schedule designed to bring people together beyond the finish line.

Organised by Plan b Group and supported by the Dubai Sports Council, She Runs is also aligned with the Dubai Fitness Challenge 30x30 and once again partners with the Dubai Active Show. This year’s theme, ‘For Voices. For Connection. For Change’, will guide a series of pre-race programmes including the She Runs Power Hour—featuring warm-ups, talks, and outreach sessions running from June to October to encourage participation in schools and workplaces.

Expo City’s race village will host water and medical stations, food stalls, music, and gathering areas for both runners and supporters. Timings and rankings will be tracked and shared via the Hopesports website.

For those outside of Dubai, She Runs Abu Dhabi will take place on November 9th, continuing the event’s mission of encouraging fitness and community nationwide.
