30 Half Marathons in 30 days - Dubai Fitness Challenge for Breast Cancer Detection

Junaid Ahmed
United Arab Emirates

Story

In memory of my aunt Sumera who passed on after a tough battle with Cancer, I will be running 30 half marathons in 30 days to support the fight against Breast Cancer. I will run these 30 half marathons during the Dubai Fitness Challenge from October 29, 2021, to Nov 27 2021.

Pink Caravan aims to raise awareness around breast cancer early detection and screening methods, lobby for the creation of the first UAE National Cancer Registry, and raise sufficient funds to support breast cancer patients.


The 11 year old initiative has garnered widespread recognition locally, regionally, and internationally, and therefore, has appointed ambassadors from different walks of life to promote and advocate its mission.  


Mission:

  • Spread awareness about the importance of self breast examination amongst the UAE community.
  • Dispel myths associated with breast cancer in relation to the UAE community.
  • Provide access to clinical breast examinations, mammography and further breast cancer screening investigation, for women and men within the UAE community.
  • Lobby for the creation of the UAE’s National Cancer Registry.
