Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 registration.

From the website.

Decide to sign up for this run. Quite a few of my colleagues also signed up for this.
Another reason is due to the good organisation last year. For those interested, can read my earlier race review. This year is held one week before the Army Half Marathon. Route should be the same as last year.

Damage = $30.



The Yellow Ribbon Prison Run is back with a new twist! Show your support for ex-offenders who sincerely want to change by purchasing your Yellow Ribbon Shoelace at $2.00 when you register and help us set a record for the “Largest number of runners wearing yellow shoelaces!”. All proceeds will be donated to the Yellow Ribbon Fund.

Featuring a unique run route, the signature event of the Yellow Ribbon Project, the Yellow Ribbon Prison Run 2010 sets a pace unlike any other run in Singapore. It will take runners past several historical sites in the Changi area including Johore Battery, Changi Chapel Museum and Old Changi Prison Wall. As runners approach the finish line, they will enter the conserved old Changi Prison Gatehouse which brings them inside the new Changi Prison Complex.

Themed “Beyond The Run”, the Yellow Ribbon Prison Run is all about giving ex-offenders a second chance to start afresh. By your participation, you are lending your voice collectively to a message of hope for all ex-offenders “to pick themselves up and to get back on track”.
