Do you miss going on fun runs and attending sporting events? Get ready to gear up for a unique adventure with the first-ever Jurassic World-themed augmented reality virtual run in the Asia Pacific.

Participants from Singapore, Malaysia, The Philippines, Australia and New Zealand will be the first five countries to experience the thrills of Jurassic World RUN, an immersive experience for participants of all ages featuring dinosaurs from the popular film franchise, Jurassic World

Registration opens Monday, July 5 to September 29, 2021 via the official website (jurassicworldrun.com) or the MOVE by LIV3LY app. The actual clock in period can be anytime from July 26 to September 30, 2021.

In the inaugural run, runners can participate individually, in teams of two, and even as parent-child pairs. Participants can unlock their adventure anytime and anywhere, at their own convenience, even right in their own neighbourhoods.

The Jurassic World franchise has entertained generations of fans around the world with thrilling and awe-inspiring stories and characters for more than 25 years—from films and TV series, to video games and toys, to live action experiences and rides at Universal theme parks.

The Jurassic World RUN! Asia Pacific 2021 introduces a new layer of entertainment to runners as they complete their distances through a highly themed adventure. Through the app, each participant will have a unique immersive experience, enhanced by augmented reality images, in which runners will need to run their best to escape Isla Nublar. 

As they progress, runners will encounter their favourite and most feared Jurassic World dinosaurs and unlock successive milestones of assistance that will enable them ultimately to escape Isla Nublar. 

Runners can clock-in their run times and distances and unlock the successive milestones by using the MOVE by LIV3LY app. They may also use wearables or preferred running trackers by syncing them to the MOVE app [via Apple Health or Google Fit].

There will be three distances available (5km, 10km or 21km), depending on how long runners want their very own Jurassic World adventure to be. There's also a category for parent and child pairings for 10km, allowing families to experience the run together. Alternatively, a team of two can complete 21km and meet the larger-than-life dinosaurs together.

Finishers for all categories are entitled to an exclusive finisher T-shirt, a breathable polycotton blend finisher t-shirt, which sports the Jurassic World RUN! Logo and a T.Rex, one of the most iconic dinosaurs from the series, on the back. Finishers of the 10km and 21km will receive their very own finisher medal, with a a 3D-embossed T. Rex.

Jurassic World RUN! Asia Pacific 2021 is organised by CNeX, a M.I.C.E. and project management company headquartered in Singapore, and powered by LIV3LY, a social fitness marketplace for mass participation events in Asia Pacific. The virtual run is produced in conjunction with Universal Parks & Resorts. 

All participants are required to adhere strictly to the laws and regulations of their country of residence to stay safe while joining in the Jurassic World RUN!
