KUALA LUMPUR – Suunto announced the official launch of the Suunto Run in Malaysia, a new GPS running smartwatch engineered to be the ultimate companion for runners of all levels. From casual morning jogs to competitive races, the ultra-lightweight (just 36g) Suunto Run is built to support every stride, helping users track progress, fine-tune pacing, and enhance their overall running experience.
The launch aligns with the increasing global popularity of running, which continues to surge due to its accessibility and extensive physical and mental health benefits. Running is recognized as one of the most adaptable forms of exercise, attracting individuals for various reasons, including health, stress relief, personal achievement, or connection with nature. Modern wearable sports technology, like the Suunto Run, further enhances this trend by enabling new forms of community, self-knowledge, and motivation, helping runners better understand themselves and connect with others who share their journey.
The Suunto Run features a vibrant display and includes specialized running tools such as marathon mode, ghost runner for simulating competition, and track running for detailed long-term progress tracking. Beyond running, it offers 34 sport modes for cross-training and essential wellness features, including accurate heart rate monitoring, comprehensive sleep tracking, in-depth recovery analysis, and a breathing app for stress management. The watch seamlessly integrates with the Suunto app, providing users with actionable insights into their training, recovery, and overall performance trends.
Additional features enhancing the Suunto Run’s versatility include:
- On-device MP3 music storage
- Breadcrumb GNSS navigation for precise route tracking
- Weather updates, alarms, and smart activity tracking
- A robust 12-day battery life in daily mode, with extended hours in GPS mode
Developed in collaboration with runners and athletes worldwide, the Suunto Run’s intuitive interface makes it accessible for both first-time sports watch users and experienced athletes looking for a streamlined experience.
To celebrate its Malaysian debut, Suunto is hosting a vibrant and interactive Pop-Up Store at Banglo289, Kuala Lumpur, running from June 15 – 22, 2025, daily from 10:00 AM to 11:30 PM.
