Vice President and Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, has crowned Sheikh Rashid Dalmouk Al Maktoum with the Dubai Crown Prince Endurance Cup.
The event was attended by H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and Chairman of Dubai Executive Council.
Sheikh Mohammed also crowned Sheikh Hamed Dalmouk Al Maktoum, who was the second finisher of the competition, while Abdulla Ghanim Al Marri clinched the third place.
The 120km-race witnessed the participation of 190 competitors worldwide. It is also deemed the most prestigious event among the activities of the Dubai Crown Prince Endurance Festival in addition to another three races held in Dubai International Endurance City (DIEC).
On the side-lines of the festival, Sheikh Mohammed, along with Sheikh Hamdan, visited the photo gallery of Khalifa Al Yousef, Director of the Photography Section at the Dubai Media office. The photo gallery shed light on the history of the endurance contests. It also documented the multiple victories attained by Sheikh Mohammed and his sons since 1995 which coincided with the organisation of the first endurance competition attended by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
