KUALA LUMPUR – In conjunction with National Take the Stairs Day yesterday, Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh joined in the challenge by running up 18 floors to the rooftop of Menara KBS, Putrajaya, earlier today.
The 44-year-old minister made an impressive run as she completed the challenge in less than six minutes from the ground floor.
“It’s actually doable,” Yeoh was quoted as saying in a statement released by the Malaysia Towerrunning Association (MTA).
Yeoh was accompanied by Malaysia’s world number one tower runner Soh Wai Ching and MTA president Ravinder Singh.
Meanwhile, Ravinder in the same statement said he hoped that tower running will be featured in the 2027 SEA Games in Kuala Lumpur.
“We are looking forward to having stairs sessions starting from the Youth and Sports Ministry and eventually to other ministries in Putrajaya and to the corporate offices in Malaysia,” he said. – Bernama, January 12, 2023
