Are You Ready for YOLO RUN Singapore 2017 #YOLORUNSG

The YOLO Run is a fun (5KM) and performance run (10KM + 21KM) 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 (Yoga Lab) after the run.

This action of liberation is signified by participants running shirtless and is supported by X-Change Republic (the creators of the YOLO Run), through donations to the adopted beneficiary (Community Chest) 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.

Cruising Aboard the Superstar Libra!
