Enjoy our 15:09 Uplift Challenge playlist.
Listen to this selection of uplifting beats while you move for your mind.
Let’s move to uplift the world.
This June, we’re hoping to inspire more people to move for body and for mind with our 15:09 Uplift Challenge. Because our research shows that just 15:09 minutes of movement can help you feel uplifted. So, join us to lift spirits and raise funds for mental health charity, Mind*.
#ASICS1509
A challenge inspired by research.
People think that 30 minutes of exercise is the minimum amount required to experience an uplift. But ASICS’ research shows that just 15:09 minutes can have a positive impact on your mind. Find out more about the research here.
Get ready to move in June.
The 15:09 Uplift Challenge starts on Global Running Day, 1 June and will run until 30 June. That means, you have the entire month to move with us. So, lace up your shoes and move to uplift your mind and the world. Show us how you like to move to feel uplifted and tag your social posts with #ASICS1509.
We’re moving for Mind.
Together, we can make a difference and help others feel uplifted. When you join our challenge, you’ll help fight for mental health. Because for every post tagged with #ASICS1509, you’ll help us raise funds for mental health charity, Mind.*
*ASICS will contribute £5 on your behalf to Mind to help support anyone experiencing a mental health problem. Up to a maximum of £75,000.
Taking part is simple.
Simply move for 15:09 minutes to uplift your mind (walking, running, tennis or however you like to move) and capture a video or photo of you doing it. Post it on TikTok, Instagram or Facebook with #ASICS1509.
