Run With The Flow 2026 (Korat Cluster) "Empower you, Empower the flow"

The Bangkok Hospital Group continues the success of the "Run With The Flow" initiative for the third consecutive year under the theme "Empower you, Empower the flow." This campaign aims to encourage the public to prioritize sustainable brain and heart health, reinforcing its status as a leader in medicine, recognized as the Specialized Hospital Asia Pacific 2024. This year, the initiative expands into new territory with the "Bangkok Hospital Korat Cluster" (Bangkok Hospital Nakhon Ratchasima, Bangkok Hospital Khao Yai, and Bangkok Hospital Pak Chong). For the Run With The Flow 2026 event, under the theme "Empower you, Empower the flow," we invite runners and health enthusiasts to experience a unique running route at the Lam Takong Research Station in Pak Chong District, Nakhon Ratchasima. This venue, which proudly opens its doors for the first time, features a running path surrounded by the lush nature of the Lam Takong watershed, allowing participants to immerse themselves in an environment rich in agricultural and botanical learning. This event aims to elevate the experience of wellness tourism to a perfect and safe standard in accordance with international guidelines.
