Running around Peninsular Malaysia has been attempted only once before in Malaysian running history. In 2002, 65 years old Nasir Abas ran 1,754km in 30days, running an average of 58.47km/day.
In June 2016, 5 ultrarunners including Ng Seow Kong, Allan Lee and Lee Chun How, ran 880km from Padang Besar at the northern border of Malaysia and Thailand, to Johor Bahru Custom Building, which is at the southern border with Singapore. This Trans Peninsula run took 14 days, averaging at 62.5km/day.
In 2017, together with the other 8 runners, these 3 runners Ng Seow Kong, Allan Lee and Lee Chun How, ran across Peninsular Malaysia in an organized event called Coast to Coast 444km in a single stage multi day format under 120 hours.
Ng Seow Kong and Allan Lee are the organizers and participants of both the 2016 Trans Peninsula and 2017 Coast to Coast. The next logical challenge is certainly running around the whole of Peninsular Malaysia.
They, together with Chun How, formed the Organizing Committee in the middle of 2020, and successfully invited 8 more runners to join them in this challenge. It is a challenge indeed, as the run this time is over a distance of 2,234km in 31 days (72.2 km/days). 480km longer than the previous record of 1,754km in 30 days. This will be a Malaysia Book of Record attempt.
Below shows the many states and sights that the running route will pass through.
