29th KNT Run 2026 - Check In Run, Samut Prakan

The 29th KNT Run 2026: Check In Run, Check Up Your Life is a long-running community charity event organised by Kluaynamthai Hospital and the Kluaynamthai Foundation. Held each year on 5 December, the event encourages participants to combine regular exercise with greater awareness of annual health checks and safe preparation for strenuous activity.

This year's event takes place in the green Bang Kachao area of Phra Pradaeng, Samut Prakan. Runners assemble at the multipurpose ground behind Bang Nam Phueng Floating Market, close to local community businesses and attractions. The organisers also aim to encourage local tourism and support community-made OTOP products, while contributing proceeds to social-benefit and educational initiatives, including vocational scholarships.

Official race distances and programme

The actual measured event categories are 2.5 km Family Run, 4.5 km Fun Run and 10.5 km Mini Marathon.

The 10.5K race starts at 5:30 am, followed by the 4.5K fun run at 5:45 am and the 2.5K family run at 6:00 am.
