He had so much fun organizing the event with the assistance of 124 committee members from various Kulliyyahs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153We went through it the hard way because of all the commitments by the committees that stayed awake until very late at night to finalize the master plan or the POA, this event alhamdulillah went smoothly,\u009d said one of the Programme Coordinators, Rafif Ridwan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153There is no specific reason why I joined this run, it is just because it is an opportunity for me to create a moment with my friend before the end of 2023 and to end the year as a productive person,\u009d said first-year Business Management student, Nur Afiqah binti Yusri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"808\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615.jpg?fit=790%2C532&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"178372\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615.jpg?fit=1200%2C808&amp;ssl=1\" data-link=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/?attachment_id=178372\" class=\"wp-image-178372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615-300x202.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615-1024x689.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/20231231_221615-768x517.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption\">IIUM Mega Run participants<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0153We wanted to challenge ourselves, make our end of the year memorable by joining IIUM Mega Run,\u009d said students from Indonesia, Atikah Zahidah, Evelyn Putri, and Izka Azalia. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_20231231_214311_851.jpg?fit=790%2C593&amp;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-178373\" width=\"565\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_20231231_214311_851.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_20231231_214311_851-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_20231231_214311_851-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/IMG_20231231_214311_851-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 565px) 100vw, 565px\" \/><figcaption>IIUM Mega Run participants<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Another participant from the Kulliyyah of Architecture and Environmental Design (KAED) who wanted to be known as Ariff, mentioned that he felt very happy participating in the 2 km relay run as his team managed to win the first runner-up position for the category.
