DINING:

Move. Refuel. Repeat.

Dubai Fitness Challenge isn’t only about how you move. It’s also about what comes next. After your run, swim, walk or workout, make a day of it with plenty of places to refuel across The Beach JBR.


Protein-Packed Picks

Worked up an appetite? Refuel with grilled meats, chicken, eggs and other protein-rich favourites at Operation Falafel, Bosporus, Chipotle, Starbucks and Hurricane’s Grill and Bar. A satisfying way to recharge after a beachfront run, swim or workout.


Keep It Fresh & Light

Looking for something lighter? Explore salads, grilled dishes, fresh Mediterranean flavours and lower-carb choices at Common Grounds, Bake My Day, Eggspectation, Smoky Beach, Yula Lounge and Mondoux.


Fuel Before You Move

Getting ready for a run, long walk or swim? Fuel up beforehand with wraps, breads, pasta and other energising options from The Cheesecake Factory, Operation Falafel, Eat Greek Kouzina, Eataly, Sushi Art and more. Grab something before you move, then head out and take on your challenge.


Make Your Workout Social

 Bring your friends or family along and turn your fitness session into a day out. Finish your 30x30 with breakfast, lunch or dinner at Bla Bla by McGettigan’s, Catch22, L’Antica Pizzeria, Bosporus or Eat Greek Kouzina, with plenty of waterfront dining to choose from.


Because Balance Counts Too

Completed your 3km run? Got the kids moving? Squeezed in your swim? Balance can include a well-earned treat too. Go for burgers at Alien Burger, pizza or pasta at Massimo’s, something sweet afterwards at Pinkberry or Menchie’s or simply choose whatever you’re craving and stay a little longer by the beach.
