The Flag Island – Sharjah’s popular tourist and leisure destination – is playing its part in the promotion of health and fitness with the hosting of a 3km recreational race. Taking place on its jogging track before Iftar on Friday June 23, 2017 and held in collaboration with the Sharjah Triathlon, the event aims to attract all segments of society to take up the challenge.

The fun-run forms part of a communal sports programme organised by the Flag Island under the slogan ‘Exercising before Iftar’. The event is supported by the Sharjah Sport Council, which raises awareness about the importance of physical activity during the blessed month of Ramadan.
