Press Release: The Sutera Harbour 7K Sunset Charity Run 2013



Runners, mark your calendar! We are officially announcing that The Sutera Harbour 7K Sunset Charity Run 2013 will be held on September 21, 2013 (Saturday) at the Covered Tennis Court, Sutera Harbour Marina & Country Club.

Although the event is traditionally held in the month of July, we had to postpone it due to the fasting month as well as the Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Merdeka and Malaysia Day celebration in August and September respectively.

Despite the change of date, we hope that you will continue to support the 7K run this year. We are targeting 13,000 supporters with an aim to collect RM230,000.00 for the 7K beneficiaries namely the Sabah Thalassaemia Society and Special Olympics Sabah.

Our first 7K run was held in July 2000 as part of our Corporate Social Responsibility initiative and to raise funds for the selected beneficiaries. Since then, we have continued the tradition as our aim is to also gather the community of Kota Kinabalu in the spirit of giving and friendship and at the same time to encourage and promote a healthier lifestyle in a fun environment.



Now that we are in the 13th year of our 7K Run, the committee has decided to add in the ‘fancy dress’ element to make it more memorable and fun. So, do come dressed up creatively during the event using the 7K Run T-shirt. An attractive prize will be given to the supporter for the “Most Creative 7K Run Outfit”.

Interested individuals and organisations may register for the 7K Run from August onwards. Registration fees are at RM28.00 per adult and RM18.00 per child/student. The fees are inclusive of a 7K T-shirt.
