Garmin Run Marathon Series 2026 - Singapore

Garmin Run Marathon Series returns to Marina Barrage, Singapore, on Sunday 25 October 2026, bringing together competitive and recreational runners for 10K and half-marathon road races. Singapore is one of 13 cities in the Garmin Run series across Asia and the United States. Runners completing any 10 series-city races between 2022 and 2027 are eligible for the organiser's special 18K gold-plated series medal, subject to the programme rules.

IMPORTANT: haze contingency and race-day confirmation

The event has not been confirmed cancelled as at 23 October 2026. Because Singapore has recently experienced unhealthy haze, Garmin Singapore is monitoring 24-hour PSI and one-hour PM2.5 readings. The organiser says it will announce contingency measures by Saturday 24 October at 23:00 Singapore time, and issue hourly updates through its official Facebook and Instagram accounts during race day. The race could be shortened or cancelled if air quality makes it unsafe. A shortened half marathon may use a 10K course instead. Do not interpret this listing as a guarantee that either distance will start. Registered runners should check Garmin's latest announcement immediately before leaving home. Garmin has said that, if the race is shortened or cancelled, entrants can still collect their race entitlement from the Marina Barrage race village until 12:00 noon, subject to the organiser's final instructions.

Race format and participation

The registration partner lists an overall event start of 04:00 Singapore time; category-specific flag-offs should be verified against the latest runner guide or organiser announcement. Published limits are 2 hours 30 minutes for 10K and 4 hours for 21K, measured from the final starter. Runners must wear their own official timing-chip bib and enter the correct starting pen. Garmin recommends arriving at least 45 minutes before the relevant flag-off. A complimentary baggage deposit service is advertised. Strollers are not permitted.

For athletes chasing podium places, the Competitive Pen requires evidence of qualifying times: 10K under 40 minutes (men) or 50 minutes (women); half marathon under 1 hour 30 minutes (men) or 1 hour 50 minutes (women). Only runners accepted into and starting from this pen qualify for competitive prizes, with additional nationality/residency restrictions.

Awards and race entitlements

Published first-place awards are SGD 500 for 10K and SGD 1,000 for half marathon, with awards for the top five men and women in each competitive race. Exact eligibility is governed by the official rules. All participants receive an ASICS race singlet and timed bib; finishers receive a medal and electronic certificate, while half-marathon finishers also receive an ASICS finisher T-shirt.

Race-pack collection and registration

Online registration is closed. The published 2026 collection was 16-18 October, 10:00-20:00, at GENEO, 7 Science Park Drive, Singapore 118221. It has now finished. Garmin required a registration confirmation slip and permitted authorised third-party collection with the relevant form, limited to two packs per representative. Entrants who missed collection should contact info@scoresports.sg rather than assuming race-day pickup is available. For the final safety update, course details, runner guide and traffic changes, consult the official Garmin race information and 2026 Race Roster registration page.

Last checked: 24 October 2026. The race-pack collection address was corrected against Garmin Singapore's official 2026 information: GENEO, 7 Science Park Drive, not 1 Science Park Drive. Garmin's final haze-contingency decision remains due at 23:00 SGT on 24 October; no cancellation or course modification should be assumed before the organiser confirms it.
