To mark the return of GEWR following the cancellation of the event in 2020 due to Covid-19, Great Eastern has launched the 15th edition of the event, and the first all-women's virtual run in Singapore. Runners will lead a fund-raising initiative where monies will go towards underprivileged women in the society, helping them lead a better life.
This year, the public will get to participate in the GEWR by clocking their miles via a mobile app from 14 November to 15 December, across a total of five different race categories, with a special 113km category to commemorate the company’s 113th anniversary in 2021. Other categories will include the usual 5km, 10km, 21.1km distances, as well as the popular 2km category specially for mothers and daughters (5 to 12 years old). For the special 113km category, participants can choose to form a team of two to four ladies to complete the distance collectively or clock it individually within the time period.
To prepare participants for their run, GEWR will conduct a series of monthly virtual challenges to encourage ladies to increase their mileage and improve their pace on the app MOVE by Liv3ly*. Participants can also expect tips from athletes, running coaches, physiotherapists and nutritionists on this journey as participants train with GEWR on Facebook and Instagram, starting from September.
Great Eastern will also be moving towards greater sustainability by eliminating single-use plastic in race packs and entitlements, to make an impact towards a greener and more sustainable world. Finisher medals for participants are 100% recyclable, while the race bag this year is made from natural pulp fibre and is recyclable.
They also pledge to use the race as a platform to raise awareness and funds towards supporting underprivileged women in their back-to-work journeys, adopting two charity organisations – Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF) and Daughters Of Tomorrow (DOT).
Registrations for GEWR will begin on 18 August and can be done through the Great Eastern Women's Run website. Participants will be required to clock their distance through the MOVE app from 14 November to 15 December 2021.

What is a
virtual run?
A virtual run is a race that you can complete at your own pace and time.
Virtual running works exactly the same as any other type of running but the difference is that the entered race can be run at any location, either outside or inside on a treadmill.
All you have to do is register for a race and provide evidence that you have done it. The evidence can be a screenshot of your running app, a photo of the treadmill screen etc. Do check out specific instructions of the event you join for more information.
Virtual races are a great way to stay fit and active all year round, run for good causes and get awesome medals and other entitlements for your participation!
