GLOBAL 6K for WATER 2025 Charity Run & Walk

Overview

The GLOBAL 6K for WATER 2025 Charity Run & Walk, held on Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM, is a transformative charity event at Toyosu Gururi Park, 6-5 Toyosu, Koto-ku, Tokyo, organized by World Vision Japan and Sports Entry. With a capacity of 300 participants, it includes a 6km Run (100 participants), 3km Walk (100 participants), and 3km Parent-Child Walk (50 pairs, 100 participants). Open to ages 12+ for the run (physically fit) and elementary school age+ for walks (parent-child walk requires an 18+ guardian and elementary-to-high-school child; minors need parental consent), the event raises funds for clean water and sanitation projects in Asia and Africa, with a portion of fees supporting initiatives like providing 50 households in Kenya with 10 days of safe water for 3,000 yen. Registration runs from July 23, 2025, to September 28, 2025, via https://www.sportsentry.ne.jp or http://global6k.worldvision.org.jp, closing when capacity is reached. Held rain or shine, the flat, paved course around Toyosu Gururi Park, praised on X as “a meaningful run with Tokyo Bay’s stunning backdrop,” features a Jerrycan Challenge to experience children’s daily 6km water-carrying struggles. Highlights include a GLOBAL 6K T-shirt, top 3 awards (run only), IC tag timing, completion certificates (immediate or web-based), changing tents, luggage storage (45L bags), and water/sports drinks. Public transport is recommended (10-min walk from Yurikamome Shijomae Station), with no event parking specified. Part of a global movement across Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore, it’s lauded on X for “connecting runners to a life-changing cause.”
