[Event] Miles of fun at the Great Eastern LIVE GREAT Run

Back for the eighth instalment, the Great Eastern LIVE GREAT Run will return this year to the iconic Bukit Jalil National Stadium on August 17 evening.

Riding on the positive response received from previous years, the Great Eastern LIVE GREAT Run 2019 5KM Triple Fun Run will continue to bring runners through three unique zones – the Bubble Zone, Colour Zone and Water Zone

Held annually to popular acclaim, the 12KM LIVE GREAT Run is a fan favourite among passionate runners who are eager to challenge themselves and beat their best personal times. Whereas the 5KM Triple Fun Run will bring runners through three unique zones – the Bubble Zone where the foam is non-toxic, gentle on the eyes and safe for all ages; the Colour Zone where a brand-new slime element made from corn starch and natural food dyes will be introduced in replacement of the coloured powder from previous years; and the Water Zone where participants can water down in.

Participants can also look forward to a food festival, carnival games, and many other attractions like a giant snow globe, and airbrush tattoos for both children and adults.

The Great Eastern LIVE GREAT Run is one of the signature events under the Great Eastern LIVE GREAT Programme, the first integrated health and wellness initiative by an insurance company in the region. The run was designed not only to encourage people to achieve their fitness goals, but also to demonstrate that leading an active lifestyle can be a fun and meaningful way to spend quality time with their loved ones.

The fun continues for participants with a post-event carnival, which includes inflatables for both children and adults and a trendy food festival where runners and visitors alike can treat themselves to a host of delicious international cuisines
