The Club will present the monies to Special Olympics Singapore in the New Year.
Congratulations to all of the runners, and thank you to all the supporters who dragged themselves out of bed so early on a Sunday morning. Our immense thanks go out to both Tracy Clemmer for her work in the co-ordination of the team and the sponsorship monies and also to Denise Glennon for all of the work she put in to help with the training since July! There were some great times done in all distances.
Special Congratulations to out to Neil Steffenson who ran the whole Marathon in 5hrs 25 mins and to the ever-energetic Mr. Hugh Smiddy, who also ran the full marathon... Madmen- both!!
