In commemoration of the global running day, The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud together with Adidas will hold a 5-kilometre running program on Saturday, 10th June 2023.
The run will be started at 5.30 am followed by yoga led by a Ubud Yoga Barn instructor at The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud. Coinciding with this program, Adidas is unveiling “Move For The Planet“; a new global initiative that will harness the collective activity of sporting communities across the world. Move For The Planet is part of a wider Adidas sustainability initiative as Adidas continues its mission to bring out the best in athletes by making the planet a better place.
In line with the above initiatives, The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud has the vision to be the leader of wellness destination in Bali, with the goal to enhance the well-being of travellers and creating memorable experiences that inspire people to be the best version of themselves by implementing the six pillars of wellness: Sleep Well, Eat Well, Move Well, Feel Well, Work Well, and Play Well; and provide services inspired by the local service.
“As Wellness is Westin brand’s DNA, we empower people to regain control of their well-being when they need it most while travelling through one Westin’s signature activity ‘runWestin’; Run like a local, with curated routes and breathtaking greenery view”, commented I Wayan Raksa, General Manager The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud.
Adidas is encouraging people to turn an activity into action as it pledges to donate €1 to Common Goal for every 10 minutes of activity logged across 34 sports in the Adidas Running app between 1st June-12th June up to €1.5 million. The contributions will support projects around the globe that educate and engage communities on sustainability through sport.
