We’re excited to announce our biggest ever team expedition, happening in May 2026.

As a passionate community dedicated to health, fitness, and making a difference, this once-in-a -lifetime experience combines physical grit, mental resilience and heart-led purpose. Join us as we cycle & run through some of Thailand’s most stunning regions, on a shared mission and the kind of challenge that leaves you feeling stronger, prouder and forever changed.  

This is more than just a charity ride or run — it’s a powerful way to give back, live the Anytime Fitness values, and build lasting memories with an incredible community. Our fundraising efforts will support 3 incredible charities – Hands Across the Water, Bravehearts and Running for Resilience, and we will see first-hand the impact our fundraising makes.

Today is our first 100km+ for the riders and the key thing to remember here is that the day is broken up into 8 legs meaning you will have a lot of opportunities to refuel, catch your breath and importantly take in the scenery. Today we’ll ride through the third bay Ao Manao, situated within the Wing 5 Air Force Base. Surrounded by limestone cliffs this bay is a haven for nature lovers and you’ll meet some friendly monkeys along the way.

    Training
    Program

    You will receive a training program that will help prep you for your 500km journey (riders) and 5 x Marathons (runners).  Riders, the key to your training will be time in the saddle as opposed to km’s ridden so even if the weather turns poor, you can get to the local gym or spin class to clock up your hours on the bike. We also have a great series of videos if you are new to cycling or looking for some additional training tips.
