Race Reviews

I know most people write race reviews based on paid events, but why not choose one of the many varied, free to enter races that happen in Singapore? That's because there aren’t many… but wait, what's this, a running event that’s free? Yes, West Coast Parkrun. Parkrun started in 2004...

This year is the first time that I join the 2XU (think is read as two times you instead of 2.X.U(?)) compression run. A very mainstream popular run, and definitely a very crowded one.  Almost everyone should have heard of this run before. This time round, paid S$63 for the...
