While wellness should be a priority, it's more than often that we're swamped with the menial everyday duties of adulthood. That's no longer an excuse – with the first-ever Live It Up! Community Fun Run, you no longer have to put your health on the back burner.
Wake up bright and early for this family-friendly run that's happening on June 29, 8am to noon. It's more than just a run too, since the route brings you through some of Singapore's most iconic buildings, where you’ll perform simple activities at each site. You'll start right in the middle of the CBD, flagging off at CapitaSpring.
Some of the buildings you'll stop by include Funan, Bugis Junction, and Kallang Wave Mall, where you'll need to complete fitness challenges and take selfies with certain landmarks. Make sure you complete all check-ins so you can take part in the lucky draw at the end of the run – prizes include the likes of two-night staycations, gym passes, and wellness bundles.
After bringing you through these iconic buildings, the route ends at Stadium Riverside Walk, right by Singapore Sports Hub. The adrenaline is real after completing the full 6km, but there are still plenty of fun activities around. Perhaps you'll want to sweat it out a little more with a bodycombat class or grab a bow at an archery shootout (registration required).
Pop by the atrium at Kallang Wave Mall too, where you'll find related wellness booths. Understand your body make-up better with Fitness First's body composition analysis or try Yu Taie's shiitake mushroom essence for free. There'll also be a range of energy drinks by Snapme.
Admission to the Live It Up! Community Fun Run is priced at $15 each – registration closes on June 18. Anyone aged 13 years and up are welcome to join. Since the fun run is part of Live It Up!, a wellness festival by CapitaLand that's held in conjunction with Wellness Festival Singapore, you can now easily discover a world of wellness within your reach.
Registration fees will be matched by CapitaLand Hope Foundation, the philanthropic arm of CapitaLand Group, and total contributions will go towards SHINE Children & Youth Services in support of their youth mental wellness programmes. You'll get plenty of freebies (worth up to $270), including a three-day free trial and personal training consultation at Fitness First, a $50 voucher for PUMA’s running or training sneakers range, a freshpod salad bowl, and an event tee.
