For the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic hit, SCORE Marathon will welcome back thousands of runners to the start line for a running experience like no other.
Recapturing the glory of physical events
Said Patricia Tan, Chief Executive Officer, SCORE Sports Management Sdn Bhd, “back after a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, we are delighted to be able to organise an event that our runners have grown to love year after year. Three years ago, we ran the race and conquered it. But in 2020, everything changed. Stuck at home with nowhere to go, we saw many people coming up with creative ideas on how to stay fit and physically active.”
She added, “And now it is time to resume, recharge and recapture the glory once again.”
AIA Vitality are the presenting sponsor
This year, the race has a new presenting sponsor, AIA Vitality, on board.
Said Heng Zee Wang, Chief Marketing Officer, AIA Bhd, “we are excited to be the first-ever presenting sponsor of SCORE Marathon. As the world transitions into an endemic phase, we see a growing enthusiasm for physical running events.”
Continued Heng, “As the presenting sponsor, we are happy to play a part in bringing this experience to life so that Malaysians will continue to have avenues to live a healthy and active lifestyle.”
