My Army Half Marathon Race

My Army Half Marathon Race

I've just returned from my Army Half Marathon race, a competitive 21 km run around Marina Bay this 12 September 2010 morning.

Some reasons that made me sign up to race the 21km race of the Singapore Bay Run and Army Half Marathon:

I had already done the 10km Singapore Bay Run on earlier attempts, thus it was time to 'upgrade'.

I wanted to experience the largest mass running race (70000 runners in 2009, 2010) in Singapore.

I wanted to experience the new race route across Marina Bay Reservoir on the Bayfront Bridge and run past the Marina Bay Sands integrated resort.

I wanted to renew my experience of running up the Sheares Bridge.

I wanted to witness all the street-side entertainment that included belly-dancers, percussionists, and cheer teams.

I wanted to experience running under the full glare of lights along the Singapore Grand Prix F1 racing route.

I wanted to receive the Army Half Marathon T-shirt, goody bag, personalised certificate and a half marathon finisher medal.

I really wanted to race in an enjoyable atmosphere which was what I received the most benefit from.

Did you run in the 21km Army Half Marathon race?

See more places. Live more life.
