Banana Relay Run

By Rannad Hamadah, 1st/1st PE
UTP, 22nd February 2014 - In collaboration with the Co-curriculum unit, the American Association of Petroleum Geologist-UTP-Student Chapter (AAPG-UTP-SC) managed to organize their very first event this year: the “Banana Relay Run”.

A number of 11 teams, each consisting of three people, had participated in the run. With banana in hand, a member from each team had to run from the chancellor complex, around the lake, and back again in order to pass it on to their teammates.

According to Project Director, Ooi Phey Chee (PG 3rd/2nd), the goal of this event was to bring the members of AAPG-UTP-SC together and to introduce them to students from other departments. After a lot of effort and an exhaustive run, winning teams were celebrated and awarded with medals, certificates and cash prizes by Mr. Askury Bin Adb Kadir, Advisor of AAPG-UTPSC, along with other special guests.


Millian Edward Kei (PE 3rd/1st) of the winning team said that he had really enjoyed the run and is eager to take part in more sport and outdoor events in the future. As for Mr. Askury, he was proud of his enthusiastic members and is looking forward to upcoming events organised by AAPG-UTP-SC.
