Despite the haze that morning, Catalysts showed up in high spirits and ran the whole nine yards. A group of 27 took part in the 10km race and finished strong as the sun shone through the fog over Marina Bay showing their support to Singapore’s special needs community.

"Taking part in Runninghour’s inaugural Run So Others Can race has been an experience that I will never forget. I cannot say enough about the warmth and support the running guides provided to those they were running alongside. Just seeing the joy on the faces of those visually and physically challenged, doing what they love, was so unforgettable. The smiles on those faces I saw that day will remain in my heart always. One of the biggest benefits I received that day is being inspired by the dedication and positive attitude of all involved with Runninghour. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to run along so may inspiring athletes. It was a pleasure to support such a wonderful organization is such a fun way, running! Thank you to TCRP for introducing me to Runninghour!”
