This is a reminder to our previous post on the "RunQ8" 10K Run Or Walk. Registration deadline is January 16th, so hurry & register before it's too late! RunQ8 is a 10K run organized by Fawzia Sultan Rehabilitation Institute (FSRI) and Agility. An annual event, the focus of the race is to raise public awareness regarding health issues affecting our community, to support medical institutions, and to encourage healthy living in our society.Each year RunQ8 will adopt a different health issue and work towards raising awareness in the Kuwaiti society. The first RunQ8 race took place on the 6th of November 2010 under the patronage of the Minister of Health, Dr. Hilal Al-Sayer. In 2010, RunQ8 supported Kuwait University’s Community Eye Health Program “Vision 2020″ in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness (IAPB). Not a runner? No problem! The race is really for everyone. You can choose to run, walk, or just stroll through to the finish line. Remember you are not only doing it to increase your fitness but also to support the cause – the Decade of Action for Road Safety. For full details be sure to visit RunQ8's website HERE!
