According to HLB LifeCare on Oct. 30, the 2026 Korea Running Expo is an exhibition organized by Runnerble, the organizer of the JTBC Seoul Marathon, and runs through Oct. 31 at the Seoul Trade Exhibition & Convention Center (SETEC) in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

HLB LifeCare introduced its self-developed "RunBTI" test to help people easily understand the relationship between running and blood sugar. The test is based on data on the correlation between running and blood sugar researched by Kim Jeonggyu, director of Seocho Endo Internal Medicine Clinic.

Like the MBTI, RunBTI lets participants discover their type by answering questions. After answering 10 questions, participants can find out which of eight running types they fall into, including fasting-run vulnerable, delayed digestion, and fasting energy depletion. The test also offers running methods tailored to each person, such as when to eat before running and how to replenish energy during exercise, as well as recommended missions for each type.

"Blood sugar changes not only with meals but also with various everyday activities, including exercise, so it is important to understand and manage your own blood sugar patterns," said Kim Songsu, CEO of HLB LifeCare. "Going forward, we will continue to expand our personalized health management services by applying blood sugar data to various areas, including exercise and diet, with PicoRing at the center."
