Singapore Races - For Locals and Foreigners to know. 

The two of the main races that one should look out for is the SAFRA Bay Half-Marathon and Singapore Standard Chartered Marathon 2014. Shape Run is another run that women should look out for. Another race that is gaining popularity in women is the  Great Eastern Run 2014.

Coach Rameshon told me that on 28 December, he would like to do a 83km run as he has already done a 60km in 2012 and 73km in 2013. Marcel and I have asked him for an interview on this. We were happy that he was giving one, as he has not done this in the past.
