United Runners (a casual and fun local running group) and I are organising a run and a fun run/walk on Tuesday, August 09 2011 evening in conjunction with Singapore's National Day. This is the 2nd year that I'm organising this event. The purpose of this event is to celebrate Singapore's Birthday / Independance Day and at the same time to keep fit and bring runners, their family members and friends closer together within the running community.
The start and end point of the run will be at Overseas Union Bank (OUB) Centre, 1 Raffles Place. The total distance of the run will be about 6 km to 8km for the serious and enthusiastic runners, and the fun run/walk will be about 3km to 4km for the fun runners/walkers.
Unlike last year's National Day Run, this year, the run will take place in the CBD area. There will be a few stops in-between the run for photo-taking sessions.
Meeting point will be at the glass pyramid near the Overseas Union Bank (OUB) Centre lobby. Briefing and warm-up will commence at 5.00pm which is compulsory for all participants to attend. The run itself will start at 5.30pm.
The best way to get to Overseas Union Bank (OUB) Centre, 1 Raffles Place is by MRT and alighting at Raffles Place MRT Station and the OUBC building is just above the station.
During the run, there will be pacers (to lead the running tempo) and sweepers (to assist the stragglers) in the running/walking groups. Remember, this is not a race; no medal or awards will be given for fast runners.
At the end of the run/walk, a cool-down session will be conducted followed by breaking fast session for Muslim participants and mingling session for all participants while watching the fireworks.
For more information about the informal event, please feel free to contact me via email at 1armrunner@gmail.com.
