Kuala Lumpur, 10 August 2014 – The Energizer Night Race 2014 concluded in spectacular fashion as 15,000 runners took to the streets of Kuala Lumpur successfully making the Energizer Night Race 2014; Malaysia’s Largest Night Race. The Energizer Night Race was flagged off at the iconic Dataran Merdeka by Datuk Haji Ahmad Phesal bin Haji Talib, the Mayor of Kuala Lumpur; and Mike Foong, the Managing Director for Energizer Malaysia & Singapore, with fireworks and music accompanying runners as they took on the route ahead.
