The Westin Singapore has extended its partnership with Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon for two more years as the Official Elite Hotel of the sports event.
The three-day festival will take place from November 29 to December 1 and is expected to draw up to 50,000 participants globally.
As the region’s only World Athletics Gold Label race and an established marquee running event in Singapore’s sporting calendar, the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon welcomes professional, avid, and leisure runners to partake in the running experience, while exploring Singapore’s iconic city landmarks.
This year, The Westin Singapore is bringing back Natalie Dau, a Guinness World Record holder for her Project 1000 charity run from Thailand to Singapore in 12 days as ambassador. Alongside her will be Soh Rui Yong, a Singaporean national long-distance runner, and Joakim Gomez, a radio personality and an avid runner.
The hotel has also curated monthly run clinics and community runs leading up to the marathon weekend led by the Westin Run Concierge, Eddie Chang together with the appointed ambassadors.
Centrally located with convenient access to the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon trackside, guests who will be participating in the marathon can look forward to a rejuvenating weekend stay with the hotel’s three-day/two-night Move Well: Marathon Stay package which includes daily breakfast, massages, late checkout, and hotel credits.
In addition, The Westin Singapore will be launching Marriott Bonvoy Moments that include meet and greet with Elite runners, ambassadors, one pair of tickets to the marathon, access for two to the VIP Start Pen at the commencement of the day’s races, and more.
“As a hotel and brand centred around well-being, our partnership with the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon makes perfect sense. At Westin we understand the demands travel places on our guests so everything we do is curated with their needs in mind” said James Walkden, general manager of The Westin Singapore.
