There are tons of different charitable Runs out there, but what makes this so special, is that when you run, the whole world runs with you!

If you’ve not heard about it yet, Nike is holding the first “World’s Largest One-day Running Event”, Nike+ Human Race 10K, on Sunday, 31 August 2008 in Singapore. Everyone is welcome to register, not just Singaporeans. :D

This run will be held on the same day in 24 cities across the globe, and Singapore is the only country selected in Southeast Asia. Go Southeast Asia! :D Taipei will kick off the race and Los Angeles will be the final touchdown. But in Singapore, get ready to run at 4:30pm at the Esplanade Bridge!
