Hey there Fitness Peeps out there!
I hope you all agree with me, there is a huge increased numbers of marathons runners in Malaysia over the past 10 years.
Recalling 10 years ago, we rarely can find marathon events around the country. The only 2 big one over a year in Malaysia we often heard about? Penang Bridge International Marathon and Standard Chartered KL.
In the recents years, as we can see there is a huge increased in amount of marathon in the country. Almost every month we can see there is at least one run in the country for example, Bareno Run, Energizer Night Race, Putrajaya Run, NB 30km & many many more.
So, the question would be. What influences the huge amount increased of pacers or runners in the country?
- Low cost compared to other sports?
- Convenient can be done anytime anywhere?
- Easy to master running technique?
- Sense of achivement by completing a race?
- A goal to go for to be fit and healthy?
Tell us what you think? Is it a good thing to bring awareness of healthy lifestyle in the country to the next level?
