Peter Chan, CEO, The Haven: “This is the second year in a row that The Haven will play host.”
The Haven Lakeside Residences, developer of Perak’s premier condominium and resort, will once again be the venue for two events organized by Perak’s premier running and cycling club, Kelab Roadrunners Ipoh (KRI).  These events will be held in August and October.
The first of these, Duathlon at The Haven, take place on 24th  August, while The Brooks-KRI Annual Run will be held there on 14th September 2014.
The duathlon event will consist of a 2km run, a 21km bike ride, and end with a 7km run. 
“This year’s event will be especially exciting as the route will take runners and cyclists through unspoilt natural territory and some of Perak’s lesser known yet exceptionally beautiful landscape,” says Mr Chong Him Shoong, President of KRI who has been organizing sporting events for the past 27 years.
“It will be an off road event hence cyclists will use mountain bikes instead of the usual road bikes.  Participants can expect to pass through an orang asli settlement, quaint kampongs and a waterfall,” he explains.
The event is divided into individual and mixed relay categories. There will be 35 trophies up for grabs in six categories, individual (men and women) and mixed relay.  There will be prize money for the top three finishers in all categories, totaling nearly RM8,000.  All finishers can also expect to receive finishing medals.
“KRI is indebted to our valued sponsors for their generosity,” says Chong, citing Sri Ampang Bike Shop (KSH), Giant Malaysia, V Soy,  Power Bars, GolfMate Malaysia (Naroo Mask),  & F & N Beverages (M) Sdn Bhd, Tourism Malaysia Perak.

The Brooks-KRI Annual Run, which has been held for the last 26 consecutive years, will be a 14km road running event on 14 September 2014.
“This very popular event is held in conjunction with the completion-cum-official opening of The Haven, a five-star condominium development ideally located in the resort suburb of Tambun in Ipoh.  The venue will enable participants to enjoy the enchanting natural beauty that Perak has to offer, thus promoting sports and tourism.
“We believe that nowhere else in the world will participants have the opportunity to enjoy the scenic route that has been planned  -  to marvel at centuries old limestone karsts, a freshwater lake, and natural rainforest while breathing in the crisp air at The Haven,”  says Mr Peter Chan, CEO of The Haven.
