SPIRIT OF WIPRO RUN is back and it was bigger than ever! This
is the 9th year anniversary for the Spirit of Wipro Run. On an
international level, it is the 14th year anniversary of this
momentous occasion. Runners kick started their day being out Sunday morning and
rejoiced as the weather was clear. They enjoyed fun activities and a yummy
breakfast. This year the Wipro team came up with the theme of going ‘#FurtherTogether’ – to face the
challenges before us in unity and adversity.
Mouse mommy and MR are happy to join the Wipro
SOW Run 2019 at Padang Semarak, Wetlands Putrajaya. This is the 2nd year we are
joining, love the Wipro family day concept with many activities for the entire
family members and kids.
The run started
all the way back in July 2006 in the efforts of bringing the community together
and to give back to those who have shown support for Wipro in their years of
being in service. Their main goal is to give contributions back to the society
through 3 charity categories which are Community, Education, and Ecology.
The SPIRIT OF WIPRO RUN has become one of
the largest global employee events in the world. It is available in 110 cities
across 34 countries including New Jersey, Portland, Sydney, and many more.
“The SPIRIT
OF WIPRO RUN has always been about giving back to the communities we work
and live in. We aim to connect the Spirit of Wipro with our community and share
our corporate mission of creating a just, equitable, humane and sustainable
world,” said Mr Kumar Chander, Regional Director, South East Asia & Middle East in his energetic speech.
SPIRIT OF WIPRO RUN had categories for all ages. Competitive
runners aged 12 years and above were challenged in the following categories: Men Open 8km Category and Women Open 8km Category. The top 3
winners of the 3km & 8km run were awarded with medals and hampers filled
with awesome goodies. Participants in the 8km run also get their very own
finisher medal at the finish line.
The running path at Wetlands Putrajaya included tiled
pavement, gravel road and dirt road. Runners got the opportunity to get to know
the wetlands geographic, plants and nature surroundings.
Educational and fun
running experience with kids! MR also bring along myFirst Fone S2 and
Camera 2 to explore the wetlands together with mouse mommy!
Parents, kids,
and senior citizens joined in on the 3km Family
Fun Run at SPIRIT OF WIPRO RUN.
The Family Fun Run was only 3KM long and it was perfect for families to
sightsee the beautiful green scenery in Padang Semarak.
All runners also enjoying yummy breakfast after run.
Got
water activity, water pong, power squitter and mask painting activities for
children. Runners join in
the game booths that gave many attractive prizes!
There were also plenty of
water activities that cooled off the runners from the heat.
Kids got to unleash
their creative side by joining the mask painting competition.
Patrons also enjoyed
the candy floss, popcorn, ice cream, and left the event with smiles on their
faces and their hearts filled with warmth.
Family run is a great outdoor
activity that promote healthy lifestyle and create family bonding moments too!
We are looking
forward to participate WIPRO SOW Run 2020! Cheers!
