Zinan told Sun that with Sun Siyam Media’s SSTV now the broadcasting partner for the three races, TfG hopes to work with the media organization to raise public awareness regarding the races.

“We hope to deliver information to the public about these races through this agreement. It is the goal of both parties is to raise awareness regarding the health benefits of running,” he said.

Zinan said TfG hopes to encourage more people to take up running and exercise through their races.

Zinan said there has been a decline in the number of people who take part in such races since the Covid-19 pandemic. He said that TfG hopes to change things this year.

“We want to see people who have never run five kilometers, run five kilometers. To see them celebrate it. To see them experience what exercise has to offer,” he said.
