About Great Eastern Women’s Run 2015
The Great Eastern Women’s Run (“GEWR”), commissioned by Great Eastern has established itself as Asia’s largest all-women’s run and the first all-women’s half marathon, attracting over 15,500 runners. This year marks Great Eastern’s 10th year of unifying women in health and life.
The run caters to women from all walks of lives. Featuring the 5km, 10km as well as 21.1km race distances, Great Eastern aims to make the run accessible to female runners of all levels.

All participants can enjoy an array of activities with their families and friends at the race village upon completion of their race.
