<p dir="auto">The reported turnout included 21 deaf participants, five blind or low-vision participants and 66 children described as orphans. The figures show who took part, rather than race placings or finishing times.</p>
<p dir="auto">Organisers said participation was not limited to runners: some people walked and others needed assistance. That approach made the community programme different from a gathering only for experienced or competitive athletes.</p>
<p dir="auto">Kuching North City Hall linked the car-free morning to making public space available for walking, running, cycling and community interaction. The turnout gives a picture of how that space was used on Sunday, including by residents whose participation involved walking or assistance rather than running.</p>
<p dir="auto">Organisers also discussed more community activities in DBKU areas, but gave no dates or confirmed schedule for those plans.</p>
