The Padang Kawad at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) buzzed with energy on 17 May 2026 as 2,500 participants gathered for the Him and Her Health Run 2026 Penang, organised by Yayasan MR D.I.Y..
The community run brought together participants of all ages in support of cancer and heart disease patients, with proceeds channelled towards assisting underprivileged individuals with treatment and related medical expenses.
Madam Tan Lean Kee, Chairperson of Pertubuhan Wanita Mutiara Pulau Pinang and wife of the Penang Chief Minister, officiated the event and joined the community in flagging off participants at the start line.
Beyond the run itself, participants enjoyed a lively Zumba warm-up session and interactive activities across the event grounds, reflecting the run’s broader mission of encouraging healthier and more active lifestyles.
The event was made possible with the support of a strong network of partners, including Creador Foundation, Kumon Education Malaysia, Shin Yang Shipping, Jemco Manufacturing, Alliance Integrity Trading, Hui Long Lighting, Qube Apps Solutions and many others.
Building on the encouraging response in Penang, the Him and Her Health Run 2026 will next head to Kuching on 19 July 2026 and then on to Kuala Lumpur on 18 October 2026, as part of its nationwide fundraising initiative.
