Carine is a UAE-based hybrid athlete, marathon and triathlon-in-training, and content creator championing realistic, inclusive endurance sport.
At 45, balancing a full-time leadership role in a Communications Agency, training blocks, and perimenopause, she represents the runners who do not fit the stereotypical mould. The slower runners. The beginners. The people who show up early, finish late, and keep going anyway.
Her journey into endurance sport began later in life, completing her first half marathon in 2024 and expanding into triathlon and marathon training. Through honest, no-fluff content, Carine shares the realities of long runs, self-doubt, discipline, setbacks, and the quiet wins that come with consistency.
Her mission is simple: to prove that running and endurance sports are for everyone, regardless of age, pace, body type, or background. She believes community, representation, and real conversations are just as important as performance metrics.
As an ambassador for The Run Show Dubai, Carine brings an authentic voice rooted in lived experience, advocating for accessible sport, smarter training conversations, and a stronger, more inclusive running culture across the region.
