Event Detail
RSR Challenge 5K #25 is an affordable, accurately measured evening road race hosted by Run Singapore Rankings at East Coast Park on Thursday 26 November 2026. With an 8:00 pm Singapore-time flag-off, a small field and an emphasis on comparable results, it is suited to runners chasing an official 5K benchmark rather than a large festival-style race.
Route, timing and rankings
The race starts approximately 400 metres west of East Coast Park Car Park B1. The organiser uses an accurately measured course and records official gun times. Eligible performances count towards Run Singapore Rankings, whose rankings and age-grade comparisons help local runners track progress and compete with others across ages and categories. The time limit is 30 minutes, so entrants should consider whether that matches their expected 5K pace.
Registration and eligibility
As checked on 23 October 2026, the organiser's booking page lists places available for event #25, at SGD 5 per entry, subject to a 200-person capacity. Registration closes at 12:00 noon on 26 November 2026, or earlier if the field fills. Entrants must be at least 15 years old by 31 December 2026 and agree to the event participation and safety terms. Entries are processed through the organiser's secure online form.
Race-day instructions
Collect your bib on race day between 7:15 pm and 7:45 pm at Hut 02B near Car Park B1. Give your registered name and show a functioning front-facing running light; the organiser requires runners to wear it throughout the race. A light may be purchased for SGD 7 at collection if required. Allow sufficient time to find Hut 02B, collect your bib and reach the start before the 8:00 pm gun.
This is a night-time park race, so check the organiser's final event notice, follow course marshals and use the required light. The entry fee is for the timed racing opportunity; no medal or souvenir pack is promised in the official registration information.
