Since he is a games fan, he felt the most ideal path was to cross all emirates holding the UAE banner high. 


A 54-year-old Emirati praised the UAE National Day by finishing a 350km long-distance race over the UAE holding the nation's national banner. Agent Eissa Rashed Khalfan Alreyami said he was hoping to accomplish something unique for his nation on its the national day. 

Since he is a games devotee, he felt the most ideal path was to cross all emirates holding the UAE banner high. 

Ajman occupant Alreyami chose to visit UAE national banner posts over the seven emirates by walking. This, he determined, would come to around 350km by walking. 

"I started my walk/run on November 21 from Fujairah banner post where I had the help of the police authorities. Likewise, a few individuals from the illustrious family joined to signal off my independent long-distance race." 

With a banner planted solidly in his knapsack, Alreyami took around four hours to arrive at the banner post in the following emirate - Ras Al Khaimah. The Ajman businessperson said he took 11 days to cover six emirates. Despite the fact that he was set to complete the long-distance race in Abu Dhabi on December 2, he was not able to get earlier authorization from the Abu Dhabi Police and, in this manner, needed to come back from the outskirt. 

Alreyami considered the long-distance race a groundbreaking encounter, expressing he got monstrous love and backing from individuals of all nationalities over the emirates. He was joined by his sibling who drove nearby him in his vehicle, giving him water and required refreshments and medical aid when required. 

"It was not just my loved ones who bolstered this long-distance race. Any place I went, individuals turned out in enormous numbers to wave and applaud me. They didn't have any acquaintance with me and I didn't have any acquaintance with them, yet every occupant who saw me running with the banner and the association logo shirt wished karma and supported me. I felt the genuine soul of the UAE on this adventure. I saw individuals of such huge numbers of societies meet up." 

Alreyami strolled and ran for four to five hours consistently to arrive at his objective goal. 

"I just strolled for a few hours consistently for the most recent year or something like that. I had this objective of National Day in my psyche and that helped me rationally and physically get ready for this Herculean assignment," he said. 

Alreyami said there were two fundamental motivations to embrace the 350km run. "Right off the bat, out of sheer love for my nation and its astute pioneers who have kept all of us joined together. Another purpose behind this long-distance race is wellness. I needed to advance the remaining fit and set a model for individuals both youthful and old. In the event that a moderately aged occupied dealer like me can take out time and do this 350km long-distance race, nobody truly has a reason. Wellbeing is our genuine riches, the more you utilize your body the more youthful and more advantageous you will feel."
