After arriving in Muscat from the airport, David and I headed to Dukanah Café to enjoy an authentic Omani breakfast.
The delicious food, Karak tea, and Omani and Turkish coffee helped us regain our energy 🔋, leaving us ready to hit the trails.
The trail, recommended by Thierry Jacot , wasn’t far from Muscat. As we started running, we got our first glimpse of what the conditions at the Hajar Ultra might be like: hot and dusty 🥵☀️.
The trail began on a paved path but transitioned into a single track after a few hundred meters. We followed some dirt roads before discovering some beautiful single trails. These trails turned out to be smooth and "flowy," offering breathtaking 🤩 views—a fantastic start to this running adventure in Oman.
