Riyadh Marathon 2024
This group picture was organized by the AU-DFCM team to celebrate the Alfaisal community of runners who partook in the Riyadh Marathon 2024. Alfaisal runners have been training weekly under the guidance of the We Run, who are a volunteer group of runners. The result of those arduous weeks of labor are the medals held by our esteemed runners. This was an initiative taken by the AU-DFCM under the AWO in order to encourage a healthy and fit community. The AU-DFCM chair and Vice Dean of College of Medicine is also pictured above awarding the We Run coaches for their efforts in reaching this milestone.
The Wall of Fame is a fresh new addition to the walls of Alfaisal. Through the Department of Family & Community Medicine, we have collected and created a collage of pictures celebrating our Alfaisal runners who partook in the Riyadh Marathon 2024. AU-DFCM sent out a mass announcement email calling all Alfaisal marathoners to share their pictures from the race. The resultant collection of pictures that poured forth was then carefully curated to form the "Riyadh Marathon Wall of Fame." Alongisde this collage, is a group picture featuring the marathoners with their medals at Alfaisal University as well as a group picture of runners from the We Run community during training period. The collage is proudly displayed on the wall next to the door that leads to the Princess Haya Auditorium and signifies the resilience and commitment of our Alfaisal community towards wellness and good health.
