Music and STARTRADER are more similar than different. Wondering how? Well, we believe that progress—one of our continuous pursuits—is a rhythm. It picks up, slows down, and rises again, producing a harmonious symphony. It is with that deeply rooted conviction that we participated in the Dubai Music Run. Our hearts raced not only while running, but also laughing, dancing, and spreading joy.
An Event that Runs Loud
The Dubai Music Run turned the traditional run into a celebration, with music zones scattered along the route and live DJs keeping the energy high. Every now and then, you would find a band playing a different type of music, each inviting you to dance to a certain tune. You would not be able to resist the urge to stop running just to dance a bit.
STARTRADER Runs to the Music
Dressed in STARTRADER shirts and equipped with team spirit, our members ran the kilometers. Yet, they never forgot that they know how to enjoy any challenge—let alone a challenge with music! They stopped at each band to show some moves, laughed hard, and went even harder until they reached the finish line.
Support with Claps
What made this event special wasn’t just the playlist or the lights—it was the people, us!
Our colleagues supported each other every step of the way, clapping and encouraging those who felt tired at times to go on. This kind of teamwork goes beyond the office; it shows up in moments like these, when the STARTRADERs cheer each other on toward the finish line, even when we’re out of breath.
We Turned the Music Down to Rest
After the run, we gathered to cool down, take photos, and reflect on the experience. After the finish line, it was time to turn down the music and slow down. The STARTRADERs stood next to each other and reflected on this experience. Whether someone ran their fastest mile or simply soaked in the atmosphere, everyone left feeling more connected, more refreshed, and more proud to be part of something that moves—literally and figuratively.
