Pos Malaysia Delivers Excitement with the Introduction of the Inaugural 'Jom Laju For Fun!' Community Run

Kuala Lumpur, 26 June 2024 - Pos Malaysia Berhad ("Pos Malaysia"), the national post and parcel service provider, is introducing its first ever running event, the 'Pos Malaysia Run 2024'. This annual fun run focuses on community building and promoting a healthy lifestyle through green initiatives. The inaugural event, with the tagline 'Jom Laju For Fun!', offers participants the opportunity to enjoy a lively run with family and friends while engaging in exciting activities along the routes.

From a community perspective, the event aims to reinforce Pos Malaysia's reputation as a heritage brand with a forward-thinking approach. It also seeks to elevate awareness of the company's dedication to quality, service excellence, and sustainability.

Over the years, Pos Malaysia has been actively supporting community building and promoting a healthy lifestyle through various sports partnerships, such as the Kuching Marathon, Borneo Marathon, Fit Malaysia, Hari Sukan Negara, Bintulu Marathon, Elopura Marathon Sandakan and The Music Run, to name a few. The company is now excited to introduce its very own flagship running event, Pos Malaysia Run.

The run is scheduled to take place on Sunday, 29 September 2024, at Padang Merbok in Kuala Lumpur, with the flag-off at 6:00 AM. The event welcomes participants aged 7 and above, offering three categories: 15km (RM85), 10km (RM80), and 5km (RM75). Runners can register and purchase tickets at RaceXAsia (https://www.racexasia.com/) from now until 29 August 2024.

Take advantage of early bird pricing, with a RM10 discount on each category: 15km for RM75, 10km for RM70, and 5km for RM65. This special offer is available until 11 July 2024.

Each participating runner will receive the following entitlements:

• Finisher medal
• E-certificate (with timing)
• Drawstring bag with running t-shirt and goodies from partners
• Personal Accident insurance coverage (Event Day only)

All finishers in the qualifying categories will receive a commemorative finisher medal crafted from a combination of recycled plastic zip ties and metal. To reduce carbon emissions, race packs will be delivered directly to participants, eliminating the need to drive to the race collection venue. On event day, Pos Malaysia’s electric bikes will be used for marshal and operational support. Additionally, the winners’ medals (gold, silver and bronze) will be made from recyclable materials and uniquely designed as stamps, to be unveiled soon.

At Pos Malaysia, we are passionate about building trust to connect lives and businesses for a better tomorrow. This commitment drives our efforts and responsibility to create long-term value through sustainable practices in every aspect of our business.
