The Emirates Villages Run Series (EVRS) returns for its second year in 2026, bringing the UAE’s communities together during the Year of Family to celebrate wellness, togetherness, culture, and community through a nationwide running platform with over AED 1,000,000 in prize money across all races.

Al Rams offers runners a route with a distinctive coastal character. Starting and finishing at Al Rams Children’s Park, the course heads across the Al Rams Bridge, carrying participants onto Saraya Island before making the return journey to the mainland. The bridge crossing provides one of the defining moments of the race, with runners enjoying views across the surrounding coastline and waterways. It is a route that combines community, open scenery and a sense of adventure, creating an engaging experience for runners of all ages and abilities.
