What time of the day do you usually head out to run? There are countless avid runners who head out early in the morning for a jog, but the weather in Singapore can really be gruesome sometimes. Furthermore, why would you want to force yourself to get out of bed at some outrageously early hour to hit the tracks before you shower and put yourself together for a day job?
It has been significantly proven that running at night or in the evening has many benefits including blowing off steam and staying healthier. Some of the best races in Singapore happen in the evening and this alone is a reason why you should start running at night. To save you time, we have compiled a list of the top upcoming night runs in Singapore for you.
