The route is the longest ever running distance held in Singapore. NTU alumnus, Mr Lim Nghee Huat, sets a national record by completing the 168-km run in 24 hrs and 44 mins. Two other runners also completed the full distance. Offering their congratulations at the finishing line were NTU President, Dr Su Guaning, and Transport Minister, Mr Yeo Cheow Tong.
