It
has been a hectic time for us, racing against time to deliver the INOV-8
Pacesetters 3030 Run 2014 with more than 2,200 registered participants. It’s a
great relief now that it is over and we have time for a post mortem.
My
own reflection on this event is that we have earned some confidence as a team
to deliver an event that is so long and complex – only slightly short of a full
marathon. However, I am a little disappointed with the participation
level of our members - we had 200 members taking part or less than 10% of the
field. Add another 100 crew and we have 300 or only 28% of the members being involved
in this event. What happened to the other 72%? I hope to get some answers in
the months ahead and before the next AGM in April 2015.
Allianz Pacesetters 4 x 3km 2014
The
above event shall be held on 14 December 2014 at Padang Merbok. This is a team
event to bring together runners for some comradeship after a long 2014 season
of competitive running. As a club, we
would like to give back to society by including the Kiwanis Corporate Charity
Challenge category within this event. We hope to raise RM50,000 for the Kiwanis
Down Syndrome Foundation.
We
like to request you to support us in one or both of our following initiatives:
- Support the Kiwanis Down Syndrome
Foundation by registering a team in the Kiwanis Corporate Charity
Challenge and / or
- Sponsor a team from the Under 26
University, College & School Category
For the Kiwanis Corporate Charity Challenge, please contact Mr Chan Kin
Hou (Tel : 012-294 8826 or email kinhou@gmail.com ) There is a minimum donation
of RM1,000 per team for this Charity Category.
We
have 104 teams registered as at 26 November 2014 of which 14 are corporates (31
Corporates have made their donation, of which 17 have not submitted their team
list). The reason for non-submission is because these donors do not have enough
runners to take part. If you are keen to run for these teams, please email to
Mr Chan Kin Hou.
As
for the Under 26 University, College & School Category, we will be able to
form teams for you to sponsor. Please contact me about this. The registration
fee for the Under 26 Category is RM120 per team.
