I started OCR in 2021 as a volunteer, running the 5k race after the athletes. Instantly hooked, I’ve participated every year since. I train specifically for each OCR season, finding clarity, physical capability, mental grit, and continual improvement. This sport has introduced me to inspiring friends and given me a sense of belonging. The OCR community feels like family, united by our love for the sport and its values of camaraderie and oneness.

I believe the homegrown brand will significantly impact Middle Eastern OCR enthusiasts. I’m excited to involve my boys in the sport, especially with the introduction of age group and kids’ divisions. I eagerly anticipate the fun and memories we’ll create together and the races I’ll run with Arabian Warrior. OCR is my passion, and Arabian Warrior feels like home.
