Singapore’s Mandai run through the wildlife parks is back

The Mandai Wildlife Run returns on 23 and 24 September 2023, as part of Singapore Zoo’s 50^th anniversary or Golden ZOObilee celebrations. Previously known as the Safari Zoo Run, the event returns after a three-year hiatus.

This time around, the 13^th edition of the run will, for the first time, feature a line-up of health and wellness activities for all ages.

New Format, Better Experience

The refreshed format champions holistic wellness derived from being in touch with nature and allows you to soak in the sights and sounds of nature and wildlife while being active. This experience also allows you to think about how to step forward for nature and wildlife by living more sustainably.

Moreover, the new Mandai Wildlife Run edition also features all-new race categories, with something for everyone including a new leisure walk for seniors and a corporate challenge. Runners can also take part in day one’s 5km Competitive Challenge on 23 September 2023 to strive for their personal best.

Meanwhile, on day two, 24 September 2023, will bring seniors, friends and families together for a fun time to bond with the 5km Fun Run, 5km Silvers Leisure Walk and 3.5km Ranger Buddies Family Dash. So whether you want to run competitively or for fun, the Mandai Wildlife Run has something for you.

A Comprehensive Run

In the weeks leading up to September, you will also be able to get race-ready with an array of health and wellness classes within the precinct of the Mandai Wildlife Reserve.
