On August 31st Nike is holding a world wide running event that spans 25 cities. Nike + Human Race  will be celebrating sport and music all with the intention of raising awareness and money and giving something back.  Some of the charitable partners for this include the Lance Armstrong Foundation, the WWF and the UN refugee agency ninemillion.org (these guys have actually done a lot for children through soccer).

The 10k run will begin in Taipei and end in Los Angeles.  At the end of the Los Angeles leg, Kanye west will perform. Other notable artists that will be performing include Moby in London, All-American Rejects in New York, Fall Out Boy in Chicago, Kelly Rowland in Paris, The Pinker Tones in Madrid, Turkish pop sensation Kenan Dogulu in Istanbul, the Fantastic Four in Munich, Beijing-based singing duo Yu Quan in Shanghai, and American rock band Boys Like Girls in Singapore.

I think I’m gonna have to participate in this one. I’m gonna round up a crew, hit the pavement and then catch Yeezy at the end. If anyone else decides to participate in this event let us know, and send in some pics if you do.
