Bangkok, 22 August 2011: TMB and ING Banking Asia are inspiring people
not only to run, but to run more effectively.
For the second consecutive year, the TMB ING Parkrun will be the only mini-marathon in Thailand that is routed through three major parks. What makes this year’s event different is the incorporation of specially-selected music throughout the marathon that challenges participants to Make THE Difference by running at a faster pace. As added incentive for runners to make it to the finish-line, TMB and ING will be bringing together on stage for the very first time, NUVO and Jetset’er to perform their music in a joint concert. |

...........Mr.
Boontuck Wungcharoen, TMB CEO, said, “Studies show that music can greatly
improve respiration and heart rate,
physical strength, endurance, rhythm as well as increase the number of steps per minute of a runner (Kravitz, L. 1994). Through the use of music, this year’s TMB ING Parkrun is specifically designed to inspire runners to individuall Make THE Difference. We hope that the new format of TMB ING Parkrun will help active runners perform even better in addition to inspiring people who do not typically exercise, to challenge themselves to give it a try through a fun, collective experience.” |

Vaughn Richtor, CEO of ING Banking Asia, “There are many synergies between
ING and TMB, and that is one of the many reasons why the chemistry between ING and TMB as well as the partnership is so strong. Like TMB, ING also supports and encourages running as a sport. We leverage running as a way to get people motivated at an early age to live healthy lifestyles. Similarly, TMB ING Parkrun challenges and encourages individuals, particularly those who do not exercise regularly, to change from a sedentary lifestyle to a more active one. This mini-marathon is designed with a specific focus to show that each individual has the power to Make THE Difference. And, that difference starts with ‘YOU’,” emphasized Mr |
