Mere days before the Dubai Fitness Challenge 2020 is set to start, HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Crown Prince of Dubai, issued a direct message to the public.
“My challenge to you.. 30 minutes of activity for 30 days wherever you are.. whenever you can.. make a change…,” His Highness said, also encouraging everyone to take part in the challenge which will run from October to November 28.
Along with the Crown Prince of Dubai’s statement, he shared a motivational video encouraging people to take part in physical activity every day.

Last week, Sheikh Hamdan issued a statement of a similar sentiment, announcing he wants to make the UAE “the most active country in the world”.
“The return of Dubai Fitness Challenge is a testament to the emirate’s resilience and its commitment to rebuild a stronger and happier society by embracing the benefits of fitness and wellness habits,” he said. “When we create the right habits and make them a part of our lives, we have the opportunity to truly transform ourselves.”
“Dubai is a city that recognises the importance of physical, mental and social well-being, and constantly strives to provide everyone opportunities for an active lifestyle,” Sheikh Hamdan continued. “All it takes for you to succeed is an unyielding pledge to enjoy 30 minutes of activity for 30 days.
“I challenge each and every one of you to embrace your fitness journey and make a difference in your life. Together, let’s make the UAE the most active country in the world.”
This year marks the fourth edition of the DFC and aims to encourage those who live in Dubai, and beyond, to pursue an active lifestyle.
