An Inspirational Dubai Running Coach Got Featured On The Global Nike Running App

Avatar

If you’ve ever used the Nike Running Club app, you’ll know about the guided runs.

A running session on your phone, the likes of Mo Farah and Simone Biles talk you through your session, making it all that easier to finish. 

And now, for the first time ever, an Arab has been featured on the running app and it’s none other than Dubai based runner Manal Rostom.

Manal coaches you through a 25 minute running session​

I’ve done it, and the 25 minutes fly!

Manal gives you a little bit of her history during the session, helping you forget you’re actually on a run. 

The session is 25 minutes at an easy pace, so if you’ve never run before, or are struggling with running during Ramadan, Manal’s guide will get you through it.

She’s the first Arab to be featured on the Global Nike Run Club App

An inspiration to hijabis everywhere, Manal champions women to wear what they like

The founder of the ‘Surviving Hijab’ Facebook page, she petitioned Nike to produce a sports hijab….

And guess what, Nike now have a hijab! Manal debuted the Nike Pro in the New York City Marathon and she’s got some BIG goals for the future. (Hear about them on the guided run)
