Taman Bukit Jalil Running Club, (pro-tem
Committee) This is
the 2nd running event organized by us and this event will be much
larger in scale compare to the previous event. The previous event "Taman
Bukit Jalil Neighborhood Run", held in May 2008, was planned as a
community project targeting to promote running and a healthy lifestyle to
residents and casual runners around these areas. The organizing team had no
pre-set targets to meet as most of the sponsors were friends and running
mates. We did not plan to do any promotion but the participation (in term of
participants, organizing committee and sponsors) was overwhelming. Larian
Amal Seri Sinar 2009 was planned much earlier when Pertubuhan Amal Seri Sinar
(PASS) agreed to provide the fund sufficient to get the ball rolling. The
title of the run was decided and the theme should evolve around what PASS
does. "GREEN" was chosen and the emphasis is on
"RECYCLING", recycling should be more comprehensively meant to
include the 3R (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle). We have to wait till the event
day to determine how successful we can promote the 3R, but for the runners,
the event will definitely GO! GO! One of
the difficult task is to set the entry fee, neither it can be too high nor
too low (we have no money to subsidize!). By setting the fee for the 10KM to
RM25, the committee having some hard time trying to secure more sponsors to
bundle a running vest and a pewter finishing medal to all runners so that it
doesn't look exorbitant. By paying RM15 for other categories, the
participants will most probably also receive a pewter finisher medal with an
event T-shirt. This
event was planned very much earlier and the date was fixed on Why is
it so late to publish the entry form? Since most of us are active runners, we
were all very busy taking part in race all over the country, i.e. Penang
Bridge, Ipoh KRI, Singapore Marathon (Off course Singapore is not in
Malaysia), Malakoff 12KM, etc. By the time we realized that we were very late
to finalize the details, it was already "Christmas". The date
cannot be changed for many reasons as some being outline above, so we have to
work through the NEW YEAR to thrash out all remaining issues. For the
details of the event, please down load the PDF Entry Form from the link
