In collaboration with the sports club, UTAR First Aid Society held its second consecutive year of seven kilometre run named Cardio Night Run 2.0 on 17 June 2017 at Sungai Long Campus from 5pm to 11pm.
Cardio Night Run 2.0 aimed to promote health awareness among the public and strengthen the bonds between the University and the communities.

The opening ceremony kicked off with an energetic cheerleading performance by Dynamitez from Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Damansara Jaya, followed by an aerobic warm-up session conducted by Sheela Samivellu, the Champion of Half Marathon in Standard Chartered KL Marathon 2016.
Before the run started, the participants had a chance to spend some time at the game booths to try to win as many glow sticks as possible to win the prizes. During the opening ceremony, the emcee briefed the participants on the rules and safety precautions. The ceremony continued with an opening speech by the Organising Chairperson Phua Cher Khey. She said, “It is my honour to organise this event with a great team of committee members. We hope that we will be able to provide a quality and fun running experience to all the participants. We are very pleased that the tickets were sold out within two days. I also wish to express my gratitude to all the sponsors for their generous support. Without them, this event wouldn’t be a success.”
The Cardio Night Run flagged off at 8.15pm and the closing ceremony began at 10.30pm with the 24 Festive Drum performance followed by a dance performance. During the presentation of prizes, the winner went home with a RM300 Skechers cash voucher. The run ended with a rave party by the DJs from BassKikDrop.
