The police dept has cleared our permit and we're permitted to run on the 29th and 5th! To ensure a safe and well organized run(our 1st time pardon us), we have recced the route and marked out ambiguous points where different pair of feets may take different routes. Mashalls would be deployed at these various points to direct you the best possible route to run. Generally, it is a commonly used running route along the spore river so its pretty safe, save for some areas where one side of the river is more crowded than the other side. The scenery is great, especially with the soft morning sun and fresh breeze spuring you on. The route is about 5km so it'll be a turnabout near Wheelock Place so that we don't cut into the bustling orchard route(though we really wanted to). A waterpoint cum first aid station would be at the nice colourful bridge in the picture there.
Haha. Slightly unprofessional marshalling there.
Below is a copy of the running route. Its abit small so that it can be on one screen. Basically we will start and end at Esplanade Park, along Singapore River, along the main road to Wheelock Place, about turn, and back to Esplanade Park.
Nearer to the run, we'll update you with the final details as well as how to get to the starting point via email.
For now, tell your friends's families and your family's friends to come down to orchard road, toa payoh, or bugis on the 29th and 5th 1130-1700 to support our fundraisers!
