The coordination meeting was held at Dubai Ladies Club and representatives from Dubai Sports Council, Dubai Ladies Club, Dubai Police, Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority and the Dubai Corporation for Ambulance Services were in presence.
During the meeting, representatives reviewed the course that will be used for the three disciplines - swimming, cycling and running - and discussed the partial closing of the roads for the cycle race, and the safety of the contestants, as well as the COVID-19 protocols that need to be followed.
Registrations are still open and those interested in taking part can do so through Dubai Sports Council’s official website, www.dubaisc.ae.

The swimming competition will take place in the waters of the Arabian Gulf behind Dubai Ladies Club, in complete privacy for the ladies with no men allowed, while the cycling section will start from the gates of Dubai Ladies Club and take riders through the stretch of Jumeirah Road, past Etihad Museum up to the intersection of Al Thanya Street from where they will make their way back to the Club. The run section of the triathlon will take contestants along Dubai Canal and back to the Club, where they will finish at the Triathlon village.
Dubai Sports Council is making every effort, in collaboration with its partners and different government entities, to organize an exceptional sporting event that will provide an unforgettable experience for the contestants. Dubai Police will provide a motorcade to secure the cycle race from the start to the finish, until the last rider crosses the finish line.
