Runners are encouraged to lace up their running shoes and get ready for the Sarawak Energy Isthmus Run 2024, happening on 11 August 2024 at The Isthmus, Kuching.

Returning for its 9th edition since its 2013 start, this annual event is set to take place this August in conjunction with the Kuching City Day celebration. This event aims to foster a greater sense of community and pride among event-goers as they commemorate Kuching's elevation to city status in 1988.

Flag-offs for the run will be at 4.30am for the 21KM Half Marathon, 6.00am for the 10KM Run and 6.45am for the 5KM Run.

The top 15 finishers for the 21KM Half Marathon and 10KM categories can look forward to attractive cash prizes totalling up to RM39,000. Meanwhile, 21KM Half Marathon finishers who complete the race within the 4-hour cut-off time will receive a finisher t-shirt. Additionally, there is a special reward for the top 15 male and female finishers in this category, who will each receive an exclusive top 15 finisher’s t-shirt.

Proceeds from all registrations will be donated to charitable bodies to support those in need. In 2023, the Sarawak Energy Isthmus Run raised a total amount of RM176,000 which was equally distributed to selected charitable bodies.

Supporters who want to be a part of this community event can also enjoy the carnival and food trucks at the event without registration.

To run, register at www.gritevent.com/sebrun2024 from now until 30 June 2024. For more information and updates, visit Sarawak Energy’s Facebook or call Grit at +6012-400 2890.
