Der Pacemakers Network Run 2009 - 1/1/09

This event was also known as New Year Run was organised by the Pacemakers Network,raised the curtain of local running calender at Taman Tasik Perdana last week.It was a small and simple race and did not offer any prize money to the winners however it managed to attract many runners.About 150 participated in this run which was divided into several categories.

Many runners and volunteers turned up as early as 6.00am to give a helping hand to the organiser.Time chip system which gains popularity lately was used here to ensure every runner has a fair run and also to minimise man power.

The atmosphere was more like a big family gathering and allowed runners to get to know each other better.Mr Kelvin, the Pacemakers' spokeman gave a briefing on the running route and water station before the race and of course he hilariously filled the air with laughter.
