The citywide initiative, which transformed malls into indoor fitness tracks, attracted over 40,000 participants, establishing itself as one of the emirate's largest community sporting events.
Launched in early August, the month-long initiative set a Guinness World Record for the most runners in a mall run event, adding to Dubai's growing list of global achievements. The record was set during the closing event at Dubai Hills Mall, which saw 1,392 participants of various ages and nationalities take part in the race.
Commending the Dubai Mallathon for setting a Guinness World Record, its strong turnout, and the high level of community engagement, Dr. Sultan Al Neyadi, Minister of State for Youth Affairs, said the initiative reflects the leadership's commitment to embedding sports into daily life and fostering an environment that supports the physical and mental well-being of the community.
