The Lakes Race

Tiếng Việt / English

The 7th edtion is over, we congratulate all runners and see you in 2026!

We are a family-oriented race that offers challenging and scenic routes for both adults and kids, bringing together the Vietnamese and international communities. As the years pass, our concept remains unchanged and we still enjoy the lakes of Ho Da located 20 min from D2 (HCMC).

Each registration helps the organizers provide a complete race kit to each orphan, including shoes and socks if needed. We take care of all the logistics for orphanages participating in the race. At the end of the event, each orphanage receives a donation based on the number of children who joined and the contributions from the participants. More info can be found here.

Run 4 Orphans

"Running allows orphans to dream bigger, gain confidence, and enhance their self-esteem."

We aim to create opportunities for all kids and orphans participating in the race to engage in social activities and build their confidence. Our main values are:

Nothing is granted: You need to commit to get results.
Diversity is gold: We can learn from anyone, especially when it's unexpected.
Gain of Confidence: Anything is possible in a race, and you can feel the love.

A Unique Race

The Andros The Lakes Race is a distinctive race around Saigon (20 min from D2, HCMC), combining trail and road. Runners will explore the beautiful campus of Ho Da, around the Vietnam National University Campus, where five gorgeous lakes dominate the landscape, with races ranging from the 600m Baby Race to the 25km run. The race is fun and family-oriented but still competitive, thanks to the participation of famous runners.

We aim to make it a green and clean race through the support of our partners, community, and various initiatives, including a limited number of banners, recycled medals, and recycled T-shirts thanks to MUDE and HRK.
