We thank Mr Loh Gin Chye for his letter ("Why link subsidy to PES for Safra & Army runs?") on 9 Jun 2023.

All active personnel and NSmen will receive the subsidies but must have the necessary medical clearance to protect their health and safety. For this group of participants, only those with Physical Employment Standards (PES) A to B2 can participate in the 21km Half Marathon and 10km race. Participants seeking deviation from PES requirements may submit the state of health and clearance from certified medical practitioners to the organisers.

We wish all participants a safe and enjoyable SSBR & AHM 2023.
