Comment from Ken Hasebe, mayor of Shibuya
In Shibuya Ward, the basic concept is to create a city that makes people want to exercise. We are. "Shibuya Omotesando Women's Run" is an event where not only residents but also everyone who participates can enjoy Shibuya City itself, such as the city of Shibuya and Meiji Jingu, as a "playground of 15 square kilometers". I feel that this initiative by New Balance through the "Shibuya Omotesando Women's Run" is a wonderful initiative that contributes not only to the health of the participants themselves through sports, but also to the health of society.
InstituteComment from Shinko Shinko Osada director and secretary general of Future Design Shibuya
Future Design Shibuya pursues the possibilities of cities and regions by creating new cultures and social innovations driven by the diverse personalities and values that gather in Shibuya. The “Women's Wellness Action” that we promote has been launched since the International Women's Day month in March last year, in order to increase awareness of women's unique health issues and take action to solve them. The opportunity of this time's "Shibuya Omotesando Women's Run" is also an urban activity where women can play a leading role and deliver a message to the whole city with the theme of health. Through events like this, I would like to work with New Balance to promote a culture of mutual respect and good health that will take root in the community as a matter of course.
