Intro To UAE Trail Running: Wadi Showka
OutdoorUAE
|May - August 2018
Urban Ultra hosts trail running events at Wadi Showka in Ras Al Khaimah twice a year, attracting hundreds of local trail runners from novices to elites.
The Wadi Racer event consists of three distances: 10km, 20km, and 30km, covering rolling hills with some spectacular views of mountains and my favorite camels. Wadi Showka is the side of UAE which most people don’t understand exists: rural, rocky mountains – yet is only one hour drive from Dubai and Sharjah and a two hour drive from Abu Dhabi. If you are not familiar with Wadi Showka, then the best way to give it a try is to run in the next Urban Ultra event there.

Winter Flashback: Climbing Halgurd Mountain in Iraq
At just over 3,600 meters in elevation, Halgurd Mountain is one of the few snow-covered peaks in the Middle East that is worthy of summiting. In January, I took a group of eight colleagues on an overnight winter trek in the Zagros Mountains, 170 kilometres northeast of Erbil, Iraq.

Diving with Giants
Three hundred miles off the coast of Baja, California exists the remnants of an ancient volcano known as Roca Partida. Discovered by Spanish explorers in the early 1600s, this tiny uninhabited island is just a speck in a vast and empty seascape. Its only topside inhabitants are the birds that flock to the area, but beneath the surface it boasts one of the most impressive spectacles of pelagic marine life on the planet.
