New Balance Run, a seven-stop regional race
Part of a seven-stop regional race, the Singapore leg of the New Balance Run 2016 will be on 20th August 2016. 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 New Balance Run 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 who complete the race. Runners will be treated to great food and drink, great music performances, fun and interesting activities and soak in the chilled vibes and atmosphere.
