Hi Arthur,
I missed out the registration booth in Subang Jaya yesterday due to whole day work commitment (no lunch too…).
Am planning to go to the booth in Hartamas Shopping Complex this weekend (probably on Sunday). May I know the exact location and time of which the booth will be set-up?
Thanks!
cheers,
YS.
Dear YS Lee,
We will get back to you on the time and location of the setting up of booths in Hartamas Shopping Complex later today.
However, myself and a few people would be at the Taylor’s College Main Campus to collect registration forms the 13th of July (Monday) from 10am to 3pm. So you could still hand in the forms by then. :)
cheers,
Arthur Chia.

Hi Arty,
Great effort for the charity run!
Am in TUC Main Campus Subang Jaya. Where do we get the bib? or race pack, if any. Would there be any arrangement for bib delivery to Subang Jaya campus?
Am really looking forward to running the 9k. Will register through your mobile booth at Main Campus tomorrow… also, training starts now.
Just another concern… I checked the timetable… seems like runners have to wait until 12pm, or even 2-3pm. I guess there are many who just wanna run for charity… as simple as that: run-for-charity, period. Am expecting regular runner to be able to finish the 9km race sub 60 minutes… do they have to wait from 9am to 2-3pm for the certificate? Is there any arrangment for people who just wanna run and leave, and yet, get the certificate as token?
Again… see you in full race gear on 19,July.
Dear YS Lee,
Thank you for your interest to participate in this charity run! :)
We are not sure whether it is considered a ‘race pack’ but we would be giving out a bag after you register yourself on July 19th.
Okay, please do look out for the booth tomorrow! We hope you’ll bring your friends along to register as well!
It wont be expected to last that long, as the speeches timing are lengthened just in case. However, it is still in discussion, on whether the certs will be given out during prize giving ceremony or is ready to be collected upon completion. We will confirm with them by this week. Please do check back for updates.
cheers,
Arthur Chia.
So coming for 6 KM! :)
btw, there are cash prizes right? ;) ;)

Dear Abby,
Good, good! :) I hope to see you there, then!
Yes, there are cash prizes for the first 3 winners of each category.
cheers,
Arthur Chia.
I would like to know if there are any certificates issued to the runners for their participation of the event. If not, can it at least still be made upon the individual’s personal request?
Dear Marc Ng,
Yes, there is a certificate to show that you have completed the race that will be issued to all participants that completes the jogathon.
cheers,
Arthur Chia.
