Fitness has always been major part of Diplo’s life: for a man who travels 300 days a year, he prioritizes squeezing in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwO2XS3v_UQ">workout</a><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dwO2XS3v_UQ">s</a> no matter where he is in the world. Diplo originally came up with the idea for this event series after he ran the Miami half marathon and then found himself at the club with other runners craving a post-workout celebration.</p> <p>Run Club merges the worlds of music and fitness in a family-friendly daytime context, a first of its kind offering from the superstar. Celebrated for his wide-ranging entrepreneurial endeavors, Diplo has successfully launched brands and pioneered new landscapes throughout his career—whether that’s turning his era-defining labels Mad Decent and Higher Ground into live incarnations around the globe or organizing a luxury expedition to Antarctica to raise funds for ocean conservation.</p> <p>Over the course of a 20-year career that began with his now legendary Philadelphia club night Hollertronix, Diplo has collaborated with the world’s biggest stars and toured the world over. Born in Mississippi and raised in Florida, he continues to champion genres and artists from around the world through his labels Mad Decent and Higher Ground. His further projects include a publishing company, various book, film and television projects and much more. The thirteen-time Grammy nominee and three-time winner is also a member of the iconic Major Lazer, one third of LSD—the psychedelic supergroup whose debut album has been streamed over 3 billion times—and half of Jack Ü with Skrillex and Silk City with Mark Ronson, whose Platinum-certified, Grammy-winning “Electricity” with Dua Lipa topped charts worldwide. His recent releases include a string of successful Higher Ground singles, 2023’s <em>Diplo Presents Thomas Wesley: Chapter 2 – Swamp Savant</em>, his second album as country persona Thomas Wesley, and 2022's <em>Diplo</em>, his first full-length electronic music album in 18 years. </p> <p><strong>ABOUT MASCOT SPORTS</strong></p> <p>Mascot Sports is a leader in sports and experiential marketing, driving innovation through global talent, brands, and athletes.
