  "account": "Dubai's T100 Triathlon Weekend, the third edition of the event, has attracted over 2,000 athletes from 57 nations. The race, organized by the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism and the Dubai Sports Council, will be held at Al Mamzar from November 13th to 15th. The inaugural year at Al Mamzar follows the T100 Race to Qatar's concluding stages. More than a third of the registrants have participated in previous editions. Last year, the event saw more than 3,000 triathletes and more than 15,000 spectators. This year's programme includes the Sprint, Olympic, and 100-kilometre races, as well as an amateur Olympic-distance triathlon for the first time. The amateur programme also features relay options for the Olympic and Sprint distances. The professional race will be exclusively for women, with leading female triathletes participating as the T100 Race to Qatar approaches its conclusion. The men's and women's professional fields will compete at the Qatar T100 Triathlon World Championship Final from December 10th to 12th. The Dubai T100 will be part of the tenth edition of the Dubai Fitness Challenge, which runs from October 31st to November 29th under the 30x30 initiative. Organizers hope to encourage more Emirati women and girls to participate across all events. Spectator entry to Al Mamzar will be free throughout the race weekend.",
