Dhaka Mile – One Global Mile
About this event
Welcome to Dhaka Mile – One Global Mile What is One Global Mile? One Global Mile is a worldwide celebration of community through running. The idea is simple yet powerful: on the same day, runners in different countries run the same distance 1 mile (1.6 km) in their own local time and local place while being connected as part of one global running movement. From city streets and parks to local running routes, people around the world would come together to celebrate movement, health, and community through one shared distance. 1 mile = 1.6 km, a distance open to everyone. Beginners, casual joggers, kids (aged 14 and above), and experienced runners are all welcome. Everyone can be part of this celebration and take a step towards a healthier, more active lifestyle. Countries connected through the Association of International Marathons and Distance Races (AIMS) and AIMS-certified race organizers will join this movement, making it a truly Global Day of Running. Dhaka proudly joins the world as “Dhaka Mile.” On 11 July 2026, runners from cities and towns across continents will step onto their local mile courses together in one shared moment of movement. It would be in different countries, different cultures but one united spirit through running. The official Dhaka edition of One Global Mile is proudly organized by RunBangla, with the Association of International Marathons and Distance Races serving as the Series Sponsor, connecting Bangladesh with the global running community across 110+ countries.
