Al Hefaiyah Challenge - Last 1 Standing
The event is an endurance trail running challenge held on the Al Hefaiyah Hiking Trail in Kalba. The course is a loop of approximately 4 km with about 200 m of elevation gain and loss per lap. Runners repeat the loop for a fixed time period, choosing from three durations: 4 hours, 6 hours, or 12 hours.
Each time category frames a different objective:
- 4-hour option suitable for first timers, youth runners, or those seeking a shorter trail experience.
- 6-hour option focused on speed, pacing, and sustained effort.
- 12-hour option run as an extended endurance test over half a day.
The route follows mountain hiking trails and provides views overlooking Kalba City. Performance is measured by how many loops each participant completes within their chosen time window. The organizer listed is Peaks Sports LLC FZ and online registration opened from 21 August 2026.
The format emphasizes repeated laps on the same course, so logistics and pacing decisions are central to race strategy. The event takes place in Kalba, United Arab Emirates, on 31 October 2026. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
