About
Jumeirah Johns Running Club was founded in 2022 by runners who found other clubs intimidating and wanted to put the social side first. All runs are free and open to all abilities, mostly on out-and-back routes so everyone can turn around when they like, and the club adds brand collaborations, socials and other activities from padel to ice baths.
The two fixed weekly runs are Marina Mondays, a 5 km at 7:00 pm from Five Iron Westin in Dubai Marina, and the Friday 5 km at 6:15 am from the Zero Point Running Track at Sunset Beach. On alternating Wednesdays there is a 6 to 10 km mid-length run from Maiz Tacos in Dubai Hills or a coached interval session from Moy Cafe at Kite Beach (6:00 am), and every other Sunday a long run of up to 1 h 45 from Pancita Bakery in Al Wasl. The club also runs a Thursday cycling group; check Instagram or the WhatsApp group for which Wednesday and Sunday sessions are on.
