Held every year since 1993  the Wadi Bih Run is the oldest regular expatriate sporting event in the UAE .

The route for the relay run varies depending on the road condition & situation at the UAE - Oman border post. Typically the run goes from Ras Al Khaimah ( RAK ) to Dibba on Asphalt roads and graded  gravel tracks through the spectacular Hajar mountains and is an uplifting ( literally about 900m of ascent & descent ! ) therapeutic experience to escape the urban mayhem of the modern UAE.

The run is for teams of 5 runners , with each runner completing about 15km to give a total distance of about 75 km.

A report on the 16th Wadi Bih run which was held on Friday the 25th of January 2008 can be seen under post run . The 17th Wadi Bih run will be held on Friday 20 February 2009. Details will be posted on this web site nearer the date.
