Thousands of people are expected to take part in the Dubai Run on Sunday (November 26), with organizers banning participants from bringing pets and three other items to ensure a smooth run. According to Dubai Run organisers, participants are not allowed to bring pets, back packs, scooters and bikes. Participants, however, are encouraged to bring their own hats and refillable water bottles. Dubai Run will see the iconic Sheikh Zayed Road turned to a giant running track as it closes to traffic starting at 4am. The fun run begins near the Museum of the Future and features the 5km run and 10km run. Routes open at 6:30am, and runners are expected to complete their route by 9:30am.
