  1. I must admit I only do a lot of walking on the treadmill. But this sounds interesting, especially in Singapore. Night things are so safe there.

  2. Nice job–congrats to both of you for finishing your races! Such a great accomplishment!! I really like the concept of a night marathon–it makes for a different atmosphere and it would be nice to have it a bit cooler out as well! Sounds like a great experience and a fun time!

  3. I joined their marathon last year with some of my colleagues, the race does really start late! There were a lot of entertainment programs going around and I was thinking, maybe they forgot about the race? hahaha but the organizers sure did a great job!

  4. Congratulations to the both of you for running the half and full marathons. Sounds like an amazing experience. I’ve run 8 marathons, but never one at night. Did that throw you off a lot, given that you were probably training during the day? We’ll be in Asia next and perhaps we will see you at the 2017 marathon. Cheers!

  5. What an amazing experience! I struggle to run due to shin splints but props to you guys for being in awesome shape to do a half and full marathon each whilst traveling! Natalie must have had an incredible feeling of accomplishment when she crossed the finish line on her first race!

  7. The good thing about a night race is that you’d beat the heat. I’d never even heard of night marathons – the Sundown Marathon Singapore sounds so fabulous, though definitely beyond me. Well done!

    • The Sundown Marathon was a big surprise for us too We have run at night time before, but the start was always around 7-9 pm. In Singapore, apart from the heat, the challenge was to be awake to almost midnight, when was the flag off. But worth it, we had an amazing experience!
      Thanks for stopping by!

  8. Congratulations! Singapore is very pretty at night with all the city lights. Unfortunately the weather stays warm, but its much better than running in the afternoon heat!

    • Singapore by night is stunning. The view we had from the Marina barrage with the city all lighted up, was gorgeous.
      It was tiring but worth it, the marathon was a great experience!
      Thanks Mar, happy travels!

  9. Great job! Thank goodness it was at night, I couldn’t imagine running under the hot sun. Such a late start though! I agree it would make a lot more sense to have the expo closer to the race, it seems like it would be much more convenient for all the international racers.

  10. Been hearing a lot about this marathon from a few friends there in SG. It’s really good to know all the details about the marathon and it’s beginner friendly. May i just ask if you have any suggestions for accommodations for those who are travelling just to join? Thanks

    • Hi Steph,

      The Sundown Marathon is a really nice competition. At the end of the post you can find some hotel suggestions with great reviews. 😉

      Cheers and good luck on the race!

  11. Seem like a fun event! I wonder if there will be another event like this coming August? Planning to travel to Singapore on that date. Anyhow, your post is much appreciated.
