Mohammed Shaween prepares for the Saudi Games in Morocco: a quest for excellence in the 1500 meters

As Saudi Arabia prepares to host its National Games in October 2024, Mohammed Shaween, one of the emblematic figures of Saudi athletics, has chosen to prepare in Morocco, specifically in Rabat. A specialist in the 1500 meters, Shaween is training intensively to achieve his goal: to add a new title to his already extensive collection. This athlete, holder of an exceptional personal best of 3:31.82, made history by winning gold at the Asian Championships in 2011, making him a symbol of Saudi athletics on a global scale.

Shaween, who also represented his country at the 2012 London Olympics, leaves nothing to chance. His choice to train in Morocco is not insignificant. Rabat, with its world-class sports infrastructure and favorable climate, has become a popular location for many international athletes seeking optimal conditions to fine-tune their preparation. Morocco’s reputation as a center of excellence for training continues to grow, attracting athletes eager to maximize their potential for major competitions.

By focusing on his physical and mental preparation away from the pressures of his home country, Shaween is demonstrating unwavering determination. The Saudi Games, which will take place in October, represent an opportunity for him to prove that he is still at the top of his game. More than just a race, it is a personal challenge for the 34-year-old athlete, who continues to aim for excellence and to fly the flag for Saudi Arabia.

This strategic choice to train in Morocco also shows the importance for Shaween to remain competitive against a new generation of emerging runners. As the Games approach, all attention will be on his performance, with the hope that he will add a glorious new chapter to his career, while confirming Morocco's growing role in world athletics.
