The 38-year-old aims to set a record for the fastest completion of the trek while raising awareness about the global diabetes epidemic

When long-time UAE resident Harry Amos begins his epic 630-km run across the country’s seven emirates on Friday, he hopes to draw on his military training and prior adventurous feats to complete the trek.

Aiming to eat over 8,000 calories a day, the British expat will have a group of experts travelling with him and a community of runners to keep him company over the six-day-long event. Speaking to Khaleej Times ahead of his run, he said he was feeling like a swan.
