The event featured a 5km and 10km run, which saw approximately 6,000 participants on a Sunday morning in Putrajaya. The 5km category was a family-friendly fun walk whereas the 10km category was a competitive run.

A total of six winners from the men's and women's categories, with the fastest finishing times, walked away with cash prizes of up to RM1,000. And every participant who finished the race brought home a medal upon completion.

After crossing the finish line, each participant received a game passport, a.k.a. a checklist of mini-challenges to complete at different booths, which also qualified them for the lucky draw. The lucky draw winner at the event stood a chance to win a year's supply of Skechers shoes.

There were photo booths and mini games like congkak, archery, hopscotch, and even batik painting. There were also giant inflatables, where not only the kids had fun, but the adults got to bounce around and relive childhood memories.
