Fiji’s longstanding law firm, Munro Leys, continues to showcase its commitment to community health by once again sponsoring the Suva Marathon. The firm has been a dedicated supporter of the marathon since its beginning in 2014, demonstrating a consistent focus on encouraging active lifestyles among both its employees and the broader community.
Melissa Harm, a representative of Munro Leys, expressed enthusiasm about their participation, noting, “It’s an event we look forward to every year and we’re always excited to be a part of it.” This year, the firm plans to maintain its support not only through financial sponsorship of employees participating in the races but also by encouraging staff to volunteer on race day. Their involvement includes helping at water stations to ensure runners are hydrated and supported throughout their journey.
Beyond mere participation, Munro Leys aims to use events like the Suva Marathon as a platform for promoting conversations about healthy living. The firm sees this as an opportunity for employees and their families to engage positively outside of work, reinforcing the bond of community. Harm emphasized that this initiative has fostered a spirit of health and wellness that extends beyond the firm, helping to create a stronger community spirit.
The Suva Marathon, recognized for its inclusivity, brings together runners of all backgrounds, serving as an avenue for fostering connections and celebrating fitness. Harm thanked the Suva Marathon Club for their efforts in organizing such important events that inspire participants and contribute positively to the community’s well-being.
The combination of Munro Leys’ continued involvement and the collaborative efforts of the Suva Marathon Club reflects a growing enthusiasm for community-focused activities, promoting health through running. As community support for fitness initiatives continues to grow, events like these serve not only as challenges but as celebrations of togetherness and resilience across Fiji.
