«FV RUN — Run with Heart, Run for Hope» charity race

   One line in the rules sets this race apart: 100% of ticket revenue goes to the Nâng Bước Tuổi Thơ charity fund, covering surgery costs for children from disadvantaged families with treatable conditions.

   FV Hospital organises it together with the fund under the line «Run with heart, run for hope». This is the first edition, intended as the start of an annual fixture.

   Four distances cover four kinds of participant:

   Family Run, 3 × 1 km — run as a household team
5 km — first-timers
10 km — regular runners
21 km — half marathon

   The course runs through Phu My Hung, the planned district in the city's south: wide roads, few intersections, plenty of greenery — forgiving terrain for older runners and for children in the family category.

   A race where you know exactly where your entry fee lands is rarer than it should be.
