Emirati adventurer, Dana Al Ali, is now ready for her Aconcagua Mount Training Camp in Argentina, one of the highest seven summits in the world, in the build-up to her formidable challenge of conquering the earth’s highest peak. Mount Everest, in April next year.
Seeking to be the first Emirati woman to climb the world's highest summit, Dana Al Ali is now undergoing an arduous training programme that saw her climb the summits of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest summit at 5,985 meters, and Europe’s highest summit of Mount Elbrus, which stands at 5,642 meters.
The UAE National Olympic Committee sponsors the young adventurer who aspires to hoist the UAE flag on Everest's summit and become the first woman to make this achieving at the local level, seeking to repeat the feat of Susanne Al Habobi of Palestine and Raha Moharraq of Saudi Arabia who previously succeeded in climbing the summit.
Dana Al Ali said she was putting in greater efforts as the challenge approaches, trying to raise her fit fitness level to make it to the world’s highest peak, 8,848 meters above sea level.
Al Ali has recently had a training camp in France under the supervision of her coach to enhance her physical fitness. She said that being away from her family and children was itself another challenge, but she always remembers that 'great goals require great sacrifices'.
