Media Release: KIDZATHON - A Walk In The Park by Urban Health Magazine

Kuala Lumpur, 27 July 2016 — Urban Health Sdn Bhd and HANKidz Zone Sdn Bhd will be collaborating to bring the Malaysian public a unique kids' walkathon. For the first time in Malaysia, a kids' walkathon, which combines exercise and education, will be held at The Central Park. Desa ParkCity, on the 30th of October 2016 (Sunday), from 7:30 am to 12.30pm.

The walkathon will feature a 2km route with an expected turnout of 500 pairs of participants (a total of 1.000 participants). Each pair will consist of 1 child and 1 parent. There will be two categories of runners, kids aged 5-6 and kids aged 7-8 years of age. The educational component of the walkathon will be provided by the excellent team at HANKidz Zone who will be setting up 7 stations throughout the 2km route, representing the 7 continents of the world. Every pair will receive a 'passport' which will need to be stamped at each of these "continents" and at the end of the trail, a goodie bag awaits!



Aiveen Wong, CEO of Urban Health Sdn. Bhd. says. "We believe Kidzathon is a great way to promote health among kids and to encourage family bonding. We look forward to having more organisations who share these same objectives come on board with us."

The aim of this walkathon is to promote and increase health awareness among Malaysians along with strengthening the bond between parent and child, via participation in a fun outdoor activity. There will also be stage performances, sponsor booths, food trucks and a lucky draw with amazing prizes!
