Selowly Explore Jogja, the event organized by Selowrunners in collaboration with Strava, took place at VRTX Compound Space, bringing together runners and cyclists for a unique journey through the heart of Yogyakarta.
The event welcomed Yogyakarta’s vibrant running and cycling communities for a day dedicated to movement, exploration, and connection. Participants chose between a 7K community run through the city’s historic streets or an 18K social ride, with both routes carefully designed to showcase the cultural heartbeat of Yogyakarta. Along the way, participants passed some of Yogyakarta’s most iconic cultural landmarks, turning every kilometer into a celebration of movement, heritage, and community. Every step and every pedal stroke became an invitation to experience the city from a different perspective.
More than just running or cycling, the event was about exploring the city together sharing conversations, creating memories, and experiencing Yogyakarta in a way that only an active community can.
The event also welcomed Strava Creators, who shared their stories and introduced the local community to the Strava experience. Participants learned how Strava can help athletes of all levels track their activities, celebrate achievements, connect with others, and stay motivated throughout their fitness journey.
“Because every run deserves to be remembered.
Every ride deserves to be shared.
And every athlete deserves a place to belong.”
Selowly Explore Jogja represented more than a community gathering. It was a celebration of what happens when a local community and a global platform come together with one shared purpose: to inspire more people to move.
It was a movement, bringing together people with a shared passion for exploring, connecting, and inspiring one another.
