With each registration fee of 100,000 VND, 4,000 runners contributed 400 million VND to the Vaccine Fund. The organizers will transfer all this money to the receiving representative of the Fund, which will be used for the purchase and production of vaccines to vaccinate the people. It is expected that Vietnam needs to buy 150 million doses of vaccine for 75 million people. Total cost is about 25,200 billion VND.

“Run for Vaccine” opens the registration portal until July 18, and is expected to attract about 10,000 participants across the country and abroad.

After completing the registration of V-Race, you can start running from 0:00 the next day with 4 distances: 10 km, 21 km, 42 km, 100 km. Each person runs in the form of accumulative kilometers for 21 days from the date of registration. After completing the challenge, the runner will receive an electronic certificate and an electronic medal to save a good memory of a meaningful training journey.

“Running is a way for the runner community to work together and unite with the whole country to fight the epidemic. Each person who contributes a little will create a great resource, speeding up the vaccination schedule”, the representative of the Organizing Committee shared.

“Run for Vaccine” belongs to the virtual running platform V-Race, encouraging everyone to participate. Runners can access V-Race Fanpage to update related news.

Athletes use the Strava application connected to VnExpress’s V-Race platform to record results. When completing information registration on the V-Race site, players need to connect an account with Strava.
