The Airport Chief of PJIAE N.V., Mr. Brian Mingo once again signaled the start of the Runway Run with this opening statement: ‘Events like these are not about the walk, run, or even race, it is about waking up at 4:00 AM on Sunday and show team spirit.

The run took off at precisely 5:30 AM in the morning which is outside of the operating hours of the airport. After the finish, all participants received a healthy Caribbean breakfast, courtesy of PJIAE.
