About this race
Singapore's marathon is unique in being a night race — the gun fires at 4am to avoid the equatorial heat of the day. Even so, the 28–32°C humidity of a December Singapore night is challenging by any measure. The course is the event's real selling point: past the Merlion, through Marina Bay Sands' casino district, along the riverfront, and through the futuristic lights of Gardens by the Bay — one of the most visually spectacular sections of any marathon anywhere. Running past the Supertrees lit up in the pre-dawn darkness is a memory that stays with you. This is not a PB course — the heat and rolling undulations prevent that. But as a bucket-list experience and a chance to see Singapore from street level, it's unmatched in Southeast Asia.
