Sharia laws were still imposed on participants\u00a0<\/h3>\n

The Saudi General Authority For Sports sponsored the marathon along with Al- Ahsa’s security, and sharia laws still applied. Naturally, the hijab and\/or abaya were worn by lots of women but this did not stop them from performing their very best.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Most women shared their joy and newfound feeling of pride over participating\u00a0<\/h3>\n

I was reading about the Women Marathon in Alhassa. I just love the idea of having this kind of activities for women in public. I\u2019m also proud of those women for supporting the idea by being there. It\u2019s always great to see a positive change towards us, women. #\u0627\u0644\u062d\u0633\u0627_\u062a\u0631\u0643\u0636<\/a><\/p>\n
