NTUC Income RUN 350, Organised by Young NTUC, is Southeast Asia’s premier eco-run in support of the global 350 movement. This movement aims to raise awareness of the need to lower the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to 350 parts per million (ppm), which is believed by scientists to be the level required for a liveable planet. Today, the level of CO2 is over 400 parts per million. RUN 350 was first held in 2010 at Pulau Ubin and saw 1,000 runners coming forward to run for the 350 movement. By 2015, RUN 350 grew more than 10 times to almost 12,000 runners participating.
This year’s race introduces more green initiatives, including a new category: Fun on Wheels. Participants of this category will cycle, in-line skate or kick-scoot through a 4km route, showcasing the ease and availability of environmentally friendly transport options. Other categories of the run include the 21.1km half marathon, 10km and the popular 800m Kids Dash, so children ages four to 12 years old can join the fun too!
