Introduction
We are organizing a charity run while aiming to break the Guinness World Record of “Most people running/jogging online simultaneously’.
COVID-19 is undoubtedly one of the worst pandemic in this century. During this difficult time, we are concerning about the health and living conditions of children in rural areas of Mainland China since we identified poverty as one of the major concerns in China. Therefore, we initiate this event to raise funds to improve the living quality of these disadvantaged children that need even more care and attention as well as financial resources to support them in remote areas. University of Manchester (UoM) and Allied Manchester Business School(AMBS) Alumni are here for them and need your kind support.
Firstly, for the world record, you will run with UoM and AMBS students and alumni at different location at the same time on the same day on Zoom platform. You can run in the park, on the treadmill, in gym, at home, or at any place you prefer.
Secondly, for the race, you can join the 2 KM, 5 KM or 10 KM competition. Of course, you can just run for fun without any distance requirement.
To join the run, please make a donation to Care Action Macao.
