You spent a lot of time and effort in selecting the perfect stroller for your little one, and now you can use it for more than just strolling! On 17 January 2016, you and the whole family – including your little one in his stroller – can get to join the inaugural Stroller Race Singapore that is an event specially created for families to participate in.
A family affair
Children need to appreciate the benefits of active living to inspire them to make healthier lifestyle choices in the future. With the Stroller Race, they can be exposed to this lifestyle alongside their most favourite people in the world — you, their parents!
With this event, your whole family can start a healthy lifestyle together. You can look forward to a fun-filled experience of running with your kid in his stroller around the Sports Hub and the carnival at the Sports Hub Library. You can also enjoy fringe activities such as a Kids Dash and a carnival at the OCBC Square at the Sports Hub.
Along the race route, you will encounter themes such as “Love & Respect”, “There for each other”, “Determination” and “Togetherness” as a reminder of the important characteristics that bond families such as yours.
Ways to participate
There are several ways to participate at the Stroller Race and you can choose to join as a parent-and-child team or as a family team of three or more.
If you are competitive, you can choose to join the 5km competitive run or the 5km family run. If you just want an easy-going activity, you can opt for the non-competitive 5km stroller walk category.
Not forgetting the little ones, a kids’ dash category has been added so your little guys can get in on the action. There will also be age-appropriate events for children between 2 to 12 years of age with distances ranging from 60m to 800m.
Your partners in health
Stroller Race Singapore is made possible through several partners that all advocate the healthy lifestyle for kids and families alike, such as the champion of sports education, Republic Polytechnic, sports-training provider E3Sports, Swiss compression sportswear brand COMPRESSPORT, sports health supplement brand ActivHealth, lifestyle website Sassymama Singapore, People’s Association and library solutions Civica.
