800 Expected For Muhibbah Run
By Achong Tanjong

Bandar Seri Begawan - More than 800 people from all walks of life are expected to take part in the PWM Muhibbah Run which will be held in conjunction with the 50th Malaysian National Day celebration.

The run, which will be held on September 2, is scheduled to begin and end at the Diplomatic Site (next to Malaysian High Commissioner's Residence in Jalan Kebangsaan). Malaysia celebrates its National Day on August 31.

The Muhibbah Run organisers said at a press conference yesterday that due to overwhelming response, they are planning to print extra commemorative T-shirts to cater for last-minute registrations. Those who register after August 28 however might find themselves left out of the run.

All participants are required to pay a nominal fee of $12 per person (for adults) and $6 per participant (for children aged 12 and below). In return, they will be rewarded with gifts consisting of T-shirts, towels and other items.

Participants will also be treated to Malaysian delicacies, snacks and refreshments at the site, which are being provided by several corporate companies and restaurants.

The run is divided into three categories, one of which will be a 15km Survival Run which starts at 3pm and is limited to 50 physically-fit runners. Attractive prizes await the top three runners in each category.

A Fun Run, for which there are two trails, one long and one short, will start at 4pm sharp. The longer trail is about seven km in distance and is recommended for regular joggers. The shorter distance (four km) is more suitable for those who wish to have fun and run at a more relaxed pace.

Entry forms can be obtained from Tuty (2453666), James Lee (2452452), Stanley Lim (8738263), Ellin Chong (8728293), Ah Choon (8715673) and Gilbert Ham (8890898). -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
