YOLO Run BKK in Bangkok, Thailand on 10 September 2017

You Only Live Once (YOLO), Singapore’s reputed run event will happen in Bangkok, Thailand on 10 September 2017. After two successful years in Singapore with 3,000 participants in 2015 and 9,000 participants in 2016, the inaugural YOLO Run BKK will take off at the King Rama IX Park with 5KM and 10KM category options. For every participant that signs up for the Full Package, YOLO Run BKK will donate THB80 to the Queen Sirikit Centre for Breast Cancer Foundation.

Soak in the spirit of YOLO Run BKK where participants are encouraged to seize the day, not care about what people think, and free themselves from labels, stereotypes, body types and inhibitions. In line with freeing the participants’ minds and connecting their body and soul, YOLO Run BKK will end the day on a high note with Easyoga Yolo Yoga, a rejuvenating mass outdoor yoga session of mindful stretching led by Easyoga Instructors and Ambassadors.

“X-Change Republic is excited about bringing the YOLO Run to the Bangkok city because there is a huge community of both running and yoga enthusiast who will appreciate YOLO Run. We are even more thrilled that the Queen Sirikit Centre for Breast Cancer Foundation has agreed to come on board as our adopted beneficiary. There is very good synergy between both organisations as we believe in the celebration of life and the future,” said Mr Alex Loh, Managing Partner of X-Change Republic Pte Ltd.

Get your hands on one of the most unique race packs filled with goodness within a box. Race entitlements designed exclusively for YOLO Run BKK feature a tee shirt, singlet or sports bra and drawstring bag. A generous range of exclusive YOLO Run additional merchandise including tee shirts, singlets, sports bras and yoga mats will be on sale. All participants for the 5KM and 10KM will receive the highly coveted YOLO Run finisher medal upon completion of the run.

YOLO Run
The YOLO Run is a fun and performance run event where participants are encouraged to free themselves, be a part of a run that gives back and also partake in a mass yoga session after the run. The spirit of the YOLO Run draws from the aphorism "You Only Live Once" and encourages participants to seize the day, not care about what people think, and free themselves from labels, stereotypes, body types and inhibitions. This action of liberation is signified by participants running shirtless and is supported by X-Change Republic (the creators of the YOLO Run) or the sponsors, through donations to the adopted beneficiary for every runner who runs shirtless. YOLO Run believes in the appreciation of life. Everyone only lives each day once, therefore when one is able to, he should always help those in need, simply because there could never be another chance for it.
