10 Pictures That Prove The First Carnival To Kick Off The Dubai Fitness Challenge Was A Complete Success
Yesterday marked the first day of the Dubai Fitness Challenge.
Which, if you’ve had your head stuck in the sand for the last couple of weeks, is a city wide challenge to become the most active city in the world by completing thirty minutes of exercise every day for thirty days straight.
(There’s a brilliant Dubai Fitness Challenge app too. Not only does it track your progress, but it gives you a run down of all the FREE fitness classes taking place throughout the city on any given day).
The first carnival took place at Safa Park yesterday
(There will be carnivals happening each weekend at different locations.) Here’s what went down:
1. There were some very special guests
