SAFRA Singapore Bay Run & Army Half Marathon (SSBR & AHM) 2017 Medals Designs and Race Entitlements

The 25^th edition of the SAFRA Singapore Bay Run & Army Half Marathon (SSBR & AHM) to be held on Sunday, 20 August, will commemorate 50 Years of National Service (NS50) this year with a slew of new initiatives to strengthen camaraderie among past and present national servicemen and provide families with a glimpse of the NS experience.

Full-filled NS-inspired Activities for Families

The carnival will have no shortage of activities for families as parents and their children will be able to test their strength and endurance at tyre flipping, a common exercise used by the Army today to train strong soldiers. Parents will be challenged to flip the heavy tyres of the Army’s 5 -tonne truck, while children can try lighter tyres.

An Enhanced Running Experience

The running routes have been fine-tuned over the years to ensure a smooth flow and minimise congestion, while enabling participants to enjoy the spectacular view of Marina Bay and its iconic developments. This year, organisers have continued to ensure that the running routes are sufficiently wide to accommodate the expected large volume of runners.

The flag off timings for the event are as follows:

• 21k Army Half Marathon at 04:30 a.m.
• SAFRA 10km Race at 06:30 a.m.
• NS50 Team Run and SAFRA 5KM Fun Run at 07:30 a.m.
• Families For Life 800m Challenge at 08:30 a.m.
