KubUltra 5

A 5 kilometres event for children, families,

newcomers, or not so fit hikers and runners.

Although there will be time registration for this event, this is rather a recreational hike or run. The Kuala Kubu Bharu area is pretty unspoilt and guarantees a healthy environment for a fun day out. Participants are advised to cover the full distance in less than 3 hours. Intermediate checkpoints and drink stations will assist participants in their quest to reach the finish in the best possible condition while all participants have to challenge their individual physical and mental capacities along the track. The run will start in Taman Millenium in KKB and the participants will be directed into a 5.2 km loop which they will have to complete before heading to the finish. Marshals will monitor the event and the participants have to register at the several checkpoints along the track in order to avoid disqualification. Although runners and hikers are expected to be self-sufficient during the event, along the track are two water stations where participants can fill their water bottles and hydration packs. Some drink stations will also supply isotonic drinks. One station will have fruit and after reaching the finish line, a cooked meal will be served. As the start is scheduled for 09:00am and the maximum advised  hiking or running time is 3 hours, all participants should reach the finish line latest by 12:00pm. The minimum age to participate is 12 IF the child is NOT accompanied by a participating adult. Parents who want to participate and also register their children below the age of 12 can do so. We have a family package for father, mother and two children. Since this is not really a race, we won’t have any financial rewards for this event because there will be no top-ranked participants. But all participants will receive a T-shirt and a goodie bag. All finishers will receive a finisher’s medal and a certificate. We pay importance to our educational role as organisers and since we want to introduce you to hiking and trail running, we would want you to be a responsible outdoor enthusiast. Although it will not be compulsory for every participant of the 5 km event to bring along all the items of the mandatory kit, we strongly advise you to do so.
