To promote the inaugural Larian Sehati Sejiwa 2015 among the local running community, MYNIC hosted Iftar Ramadhan function at Primera Hotel for several popular and active runners, friends and sponsors.
After a short introduction
by MYNIC CEO, En. Hasnul, the guests helped themselves to a wide array of superb local & western dishes.
Needless to say, the endless supply of fresh durians was the clear crowd-favourite. In between the eating, the guests mingled, chatted and posed for the cameras. Overall, it was a very pleasant & relaxing evening among a mixed bag of friendly runners. Special thank you to our gracious hosts, MYNIC & Running Project. We wish them great success for their first running collaboration under Larian on the 23rd of August 2015. By all means, with the great prizes & giveaways made available, the participants can expect much fun and merriment on race day.
