DAY 3 OUR RUNNING STORIES:

Off to run for RUNmadan Challenge - for the past few days this is my
status on Facebook every afternoon.

Yes! we survived 3 days of running on a hot 40° C Dubai hot weather
and as of today, we ran 12.50kms., visited 3 communities & 13 Mosques
and a total of 56 challengers joins the event.

Day 3, my whole family ran and finished 4km challenge and I am happy
because they experienced to eat Iftar with our Muslim brothers at
"Masjid Mankool 2 Mosque" (name to be verified).

At exactly 7pm, we ran from Al Karama Metro Station towards to our
1st Mosque but we need to slow down as we saw a Mosque which is not
my lists...this our 1st Mosque " Masjid Mankool Mosque" (name to be verified).

After 700 meters run on a 39°C hot weather, we reached our 2nd Mosque
"Musalla Al Eid". By this time I told the challengers to run a little faster
because our 3rd Mosque "Masjid Mankool 2 Mosque"are waiting & prepare
Iftar for us.

After joining our muslim brothers having Iftar(tuna sandwich,samosa, laban milk & water),
we jog towards our 4th Mosque "Masjid Nidaa Al Fitra Mosque" and to complete
the challenge we stop at 5th Mosque "Masjid Mankool 3 Mosque"
an under-construction mosque. We finished Day 3 by taking our Finisher Photo
at Al Karama Metro Station.

See you tomorrow...Day 4 at Raffa Area, Dubai, UAE.
