Question 1

Running Together, Not Racing Against Each Other

Accepted Answer

What makes Chase The Pace different is that it isn't centred around race timing or personal records. Instead, it's about building a community where people can learn from one another, gain confidence, and enjoy running together.

Throughout the series, participants can expect a mix of community runs, product trials, recovery sessions, and expert-led workshops designed to help runners improve beyond simply logging more kilometres.

Be it for your next race, chasing a new personal best, or doing your very first 5K, every session is designed to make running feel more approachable and enjoyable.

Question 2

Putting the adidas Adizero EVO SL to the Test

Accepted Answer

One of the highlights of the launch event was the opportunity to test the [**adidas Adizero EVO SL**](/adidas/adidas-adizero) in real running conditions.

Instead of trying the shoes on for a few steps inside a store, participants got to experience how they performed during an actual community run. Built with a lightweight upper, responsive **Lightstrike Pro** cushioning, and a **Continental™ Rubber outsole** for reliable grip, the Adizero EVO SL is designed for runners looking for a lightweight shoe that feels equally comfortable during faster training sessions and everyday runs.

Experiencing the shoe on familiar roads gave runners a much better sense of how it responds during different paces and movements.

Question 3

Recovery Matters Too

Accepted Answer

The morning didn't end at the finish line.

After the run, participants returned to Sports Direct for a recovery workshop titled **"Mobility Where It Matters."** Instead of focusing solely on speed or mileage, the session explored often-overlooked aspects of running performance, including ankle mobility, hip extension, and hamstring flexibility.

Runners also had access to personalised consultations, making the experience feel more like a community fitness event than a traditional product launch.

To round things off, participants took on the **Acceleration Ladder Challenge**, a fun sprint-based activity that tested agility, coordination, and speed. One standout runner walked away with a brand-new pair of adidas Adizero EVO SLs after topping the challenge.

Question 4

The Run Continues Across Malaysia

Accepted Answer

The momentum didn't stop at Sunway Pyramid. Chase The Pace continues its journey across Malaysia, bringing the same community spirit, local running crews, and shared passion for movement to cities around the country, giving even more runners the chance to be part of the experience:

- **9 May 2026** – Gurney Plaza, Penang (with Penang City Running Runners and Penang Forward Sports Club)

- **23 May 2026** – Mayang Mall, Terengganu (with 179Culture)

- **6 June 2026** – Sunway Big Box Retail Park, Johor (with Route Kucing Crew and Team Tréximo)

- **27 June 2026** – Pavilion Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur (with Flow Forward Fit)

Each stop partners with local running communities, giving every event its own personality while keeping the same welcoming spirit that defines the series.

Question 5

More Than Just a Run

Accepted Answer

Community running has grown rapidly across Malaysia over the past few years, with more people discovering that running is as much about connection as it is about fitness.

Chase The Pace embraces that mindset by creating spaces where runners can meet new people, learn from experienced community leaders, explore the latest performance footwear, and simply enjoy moving together.

The [**adidas Adizero EVO SL**](/adidas/adidas-adizero) is now available at selected Sports Direct stores and online, so runners can continue the experience long after the community run ends.
