10th October 2010 (10.10.10) is seen as an auspicious day by many and to commemorate this special day,a fun run was organised by hoHaa in front of Lot 10 Shopping center in the heart of Kuala Lumpur city.
Thousands turned up and occupied the usual busy Jalan Bukit Bintang where the starting line was.Traffic was at almost standstill in several parts of the city as runners and city dwellers took their time at a leisurely pace to complete the 4.1km course.
Just before the start,a group of three 'free stylers' showed off their soccer ball juggling skill to entertain the crowd.
Even though it was just a short run,a water station was put up at 2km mark.The weather was rather hot and humid as the run was flagged off after the sun had risen.
There were many of us (KPAC members) joined in the run.Even our elite runners such as Murali Nathan,Ng Say Heong and veteran Siow Kek Keong were there.Medal was offered and this is probably the reason why it attracted many seasoned runners.
Also at the scene were our treasurer Jimmy Yang,asst secretary Seah Leong San and his wife,committee members Gan Ling Ling and Lum Kiok Ming and a volunteer Tan Boon Seong.They were promoting our very own Run4it 4
