Singapore is a great running country and the number of races that are held annually has grown significantly. It’s time to dust off the trainers and get active with the kids this year. Runs start from as little as 800m, so find one that will suit you and your clan. Get ready, set, go!
There are two races which your kids can take part in. The first is the 5km Earth Hour Run for kids aged 6 - 12 years old. The second is the 5km Earth Hour Run for kids aged 13-17 years old. 35,000 participants are expected in 2017, making it Asia’s largest night marathon.
