Score Marathon 2019 - Ambassador Launch

This year, SCORE returns to shake up the local running scene with their annual signature running event debuting the first ever full-length marathon. Can you believe that the event is half-a-decade old already? Inspired to cultivate a healthier lifestyle for all, this year's SCORE theme is none other than #ConquerTogether, a nod to the runners who've grown together alongside the event since its inception.



SCORE Marathon 2019 comprises of two parts, Run The Night (5km, 10km, 21km and 42km routes) and Run The Day (5km, 10km and 21km routes). The upcoming Run The Night is set to take place on 13 April 2019, whilst Run The Day will happen on 28 July 2019. Will you embrace the dark side and sprint through the cool, concrete jungle of Dataran Putrajaya? Or is running bathed in sunshine amidst KL Sports City's picturesque backdrop of old and new landmarks excites you more? Better still, conquer both and break your own limits! There will also be traditional performances, local food trucks serving Malaysian favourites and 'Fancy Traditional Dress Contest' offering cash prizes up for grabs.
