NEW BALANCE KLANG PACERS 12 KM Run 12/10/2008

Of all the three races that the KPAC organised in the recent years,the Run4it II is the most well organised and successful one.The race received overwhelming response from not only the locals but attracted foreigners as well.Estimated one thousand runners turned up at Padang Sultan Sulaiman as early 6.00 am.

For the second edition of Run4it,there were two changes in the running route.First,instead of Jalan Tun Dr Ismail (the road leads to Taman Sri Andalas) the organiser felt that the Jalan Tun Sambanthan is more suitable due to lesser traffic eventhough the distance is farther and is a very straight road.

Secondly,runners took a shorter run just behind the stadium by turning left.The previous route was straight to the commuter station and then back to the stadium.

There were many police traffic and RELA members deployed to all corners and junctions to make sure the safety of runners are taken care of eventhough there were some minor misunderstandings between runners and inconsiderate drivers.

The race was delayed for about 10 minutes due to some unforeseen circumstances.It was gunned off by the Sg Pinang assembly man,YB Mr Teng Chang Kim who is also the Selangor State Assembly Speaker.The men started first, followed by the ladies 5 minutes later.

Overall many runners were satisfied with the run and promise to come back for the third edition of Run4it.The KPAC would like to thank all sponsors,volunteers and not forgetting the runners themselves for making this run a memorable one.
