A glance at last year’s successful Music Run event

The Music Run has been turning up the volume of many running enthusiasts’ hearts all over Asia, from our neighbour Kuala Lumpur to Yangon, Myanmar. This year, it returns triumphantly to take over the globe, with 13 new countries in mind (including even, Europe), with our very own Singapore as its international starting point!

The Music Run is a breath of fresh air to the marathon scene, by making it an interactive and music pumping experience all throughout the 5KM route. It promises an immersive experience unlike any other, as it gets your heartbeat thumping to your favourite tunes along the coast of Sentosa.

The 5KM route features 5 different zones packed with activities

Each 1KM section will be jam-packed full of activities unique to the sponsors and music genres; totalling up to five with AIA taking over Rock and Dance, Head&Shoulder with Pop, Coca-Cola with Retro and Gilette with Hip-Hop.

Dharni and K-Leah will be collaborating at the Start Zone to get everyone pumped for the run

While all of them have kept amazingly mum about what they have got installed for the Music Runners, they could barely hold back their excitement and promises to bring their own brand of flavour to each zone. Starting from the beginning, you will find the pioneer of beatboxing in Singapore and defending champion of the International Grand Beatbox Battle, Dharni, collaborating with K-Leah to jumpstart the Music Runners for the fun-packed 5KM ahead.

Continuing on, Head&Shoulders promises to refresh our humidity-worn bodies with some soap and bubbles (foam party, maybe?), while Gilette aims to bring us onto the blinged up set of a Barbershop! As the run comes to an end, with the golden dusk of Sentosa in the background, AIA even has plans for something a little exciting “in the dark”.

Be your very own DJ by voting for the tracks in each zone

As Ben Pember, Executive Director of Exceed Sports and Entertainment responsible for bringing The Music Run onto our sunny island, says: “Music and running has always gone hand in hand in a way that allows fitness buffs and casual runners alike to enjoy running to the rhythm of the beat.” To top that, their exclusive partnership with Spotify brings upon our very own flavour to the songs played through the 100 over quality speakers found every step of the way.

Taking the wealth of knowledge Spotify has as a music service, they have joined forces to come up with playlists tuned to our local preferences. What’s more, you get to play DJ through the Music Run website! Every Music Runner has the power to control what’s going to be played on that day – by voting up your favourite music track from each genre. The more hits the track gets, the higher its chances for an appearance!
