As we navigate working in the new normal, an increasing emphasis has been placed on both our physical and mental wellness. Of the many ways to de-stress, running has been a great source of relief for many of us.
When work gets long and our head feels heavy, a simple way to clear our thoughts is to go for a light jog or a run. In addition, the landscape and views that accompany can greatly enhance your experience. Located along Marina Bay, our portfolio including Marina Bay Financial Centre and One Raffles Quay provides our community with ample opportunities for one of the most scenic runs one can have in Singapore.
Here are three running routes along the Marina Bay area where you can take in the stunning Singapore skyline and refresh your mind, as a beginner in running or otherwise.
