Exciting Ajinomoto Run Attracts Over 4,500 Participants on Bangkok Landmark Routes
Ajinomoto (Thailand) Co., Ltd. continues to support sports and fitness by hosting the second annual 'aminoVITAL Run 2026' in Bangkok. The event gathered over 4,500 runners, including top athletes from across the country, to test their potential on significant city landmarks at Thammasat University's Tha Prachan campus. The competition was organized under the concept 'Be Beyond Run', emphasizing running as more than just a competition, but a way to develop physical potential alongside proper nutrition. The race route took runners through historic Bangkok landmarks like Democracy Monument, Phra Sumeru Fortress, and Rama 8 Bridge, creating a challenging and unique urban running experience. The event featured three race distances to accommodate runners of all levels, from beginners to professional athletes. The half-marathon (21.1 kilometers) was the highlight, with Phongsakorn Suksawat winning the men's overall title in 1 hour 12 minutes, and Onarong Wong claiming the women's first place in 1 hour 26 minutes. The event also served as a launch platform for Ajinomoto's new aminoVital Fit Clear Whey Protein product, designed for active lifestyles with high protein content and convenient packaging.
