MOKO Social Media Creates App Destined To Be The Ultimate Runners Sanctuary: RunHaven

NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- MOKO Social Media Limited (NASDAQ: MOKO, ASX: MKB) is pleased to announce the upgrades and development of its running-based product division. RunHaven, a web and mobile site devoted to providing a sanctuary for runners, is scheduled for several new upgrades and releases in 4^th quarter 2014 including web and mobile interface upgrades and the launch of the app of the same name.

RunHaven, a site that provides daily entertaining and educational running-related content, is currently upgrading the web and mobile interfaces to provide an enhanced user experience complete with new community and social functionality features.  These features include a Forum for the discussion of any and all things running, including: training tips, injury prevention, nutritional information and gear; community photo albums for user-generated images, and an online running store powered via a partnership with Pacers, a specialty running retailer chain with stores in the greater Washington DC area. These improvements are slated for October 2014 on both iOS and Android

Also in development for January 2015 is RaceAdvizor, RunHaven's ultimate running race portal, which will be one of America's largest mobile and online information hubs for running events. Providing runners with a one-stop location for in-depth racing information for over 30,000 races each year, runners will be able to find the perfect event, whether it is across town or across the country. RaceAdvizor's database will include all categories of running races including: road races, trail races, ultra-marathons, themed races, obstacle course races and fun runs. Runners will be able to search by proximity, date range, race distance and race name. They will also be able to read reviews written by fellow runners and share their event photos.

RaceAdvizor will take the guesswork out of choosing your next race by providing runners with the ability to:

• Find essential event details including the event, name, date, location, race distance(s) and a description.
• Read and write race reviews on topics such as: cost/value, course difficulty, race tee shirt, awards, parking, safety and post-race food.
• View and upload race pictures.
• See a 10-day weather forecast for the event's location
