Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) hosts its popular Batelco Fitness on Track event on Friday with participants getting an opportunity to maintain their health and wellbeing in a casual, safe environment, either on foot or on a bicycle.

The activity is just a week removed from the biggest occasion of the year at “The Home of Motorsport in the Middle East”, with the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2022 drawing a record crowd.

The Batelco Fitness on Track continues BIC’s year-round programme of events and activities both on and off the track. Due to previous editions being fully subscribed, those interested in joining this weekend are advised to book in advance to secure their participation.

This can be done on bahraingp. com or by calling the BIC Hotline on +973-17450000. All taking part can train or simply casually exercise within BIC’s secure and controlled setting. Runners and cyclists will get a bright and early start to the weekend with the activity taking place between 6am and 10am.

Anyone wishing to participate must pre-register and pay in advance on bahraingp.com. The cost to take part remains the same at BD2 for cyclists and BD1 for runners. Those under the age of 12 can participate for free if accompanied by a paying adult.

The running and cycling will take place on separate track layouts. Runners and walkers will be utilising the 2.550-kilometre Inner Track, while cyclists will be able to ride their bikes along BIC’s 3.543-kilometre Outer circuit, with a dedicated area for children’s cycling.
