The YOLO Run from Singapore
has come to Kuala Lumpur!
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. The inaugural 2XU YOLO Run KL will take off at Oasis Square with 5KM and 10KM category options, with world leading compression brand 2XU coming on board as the title sponsor. With Make-A-Wish® Malaysia (MAWM) as the run’s adopted beneficiary, 50 percent of the proceeds of the limited-edition YOLO Run x MAWM tee shirt will benefit the foundation. 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.
