Part of a seven-stop of the regional race, the Singapore leg is set to be held on 20th August and runners can challenge themselves to a 7km race, a 2km increase from last year’s 5km distance. As part of the Run On theme, run an additional 1km at the end to earn yourself a Limited Edition achievement badge.
Last year’s race was a hit with over 4,000 runners and a key reason for that was the unique New Balance Pop-up festival experience. The post-race festival awaits all runners after they complete the race. Runners will be able to enjoy great food and drink, awesome music performances, interesting activities and soak in the chill vibes and atmosphere.
