I recently moved to Abu Dhabi, and like a lot of women here who come alone, I found it surprisingly difficult to make friends. I’m 37, Lebanese, lived in Canada before, and now working in a corporate setting in Abu Dhabi, where I’m the only woman in an office full of senior men. Great job, but not the easiest place to build a social circle.
I enjoy running and hiking, nothing intense, nothing competitive. I’m not a coach, not a trainer, not organizing a marathon. I’m just someone who likes to move, stay active, and meet other women who feel the same way.
I’m upbeat, positive, and pretty energetic by nature. I’m not into nightlife, brunch culture, or party scene. I enjoy them occasionally, but I also want something simple and genuine. So I thought: why not start a women-only running/walking club in Al Raha?
if you enjoy movement,
if you want to make friends naturally, you’re welcome xo.
There’s no hardcore training here.
We can jog, run, walk, mix it up, whatever pace feels good. This is about connection, and being outside with good energy.
Meeting Point: Al Raha area [Message me and I will send the location].
Time: Around 6 PM (I can adjust if another time works better)
Come as you are, whether you’re a runner, a walker, or someone who just wants to get out of the house and meet like-minded women.
Looking forward to meeting you.
