The picture tells the story! Last week's Run For Hope was a huge success and from 'The Regent Singapore & The Four Seasons Hotel' we would like to say A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL TEMASEK POLY VOLUNTEER MARSHALLS.

All of you must be proud, contributing your time, sleep, soaking up the rain and having your feet stuck in mud to make this event a success, but what's more important is we all had fun.

The Run attracted 7,000+ sign-ups, most of which came on the day to join in the event. Although the weather brought some heavy rain pre-race it cleared up by the start and it turned out to be fine, yet overcast, throughout the run - cool and pleasant!

Although it was a major logistical event with more than 500 people volunteering on the day, everything was exceptionally well planned, coordinated and executed which ensured that the event ran smoothly and safely - the participants had a great time.

The word is that we raised $310,000 for the Singapore Cancer Society to distribute locally for cancer research. Once again, a great success for Temasek Marshall Team!!

Thank you again for all those hours of support and yesterday in particular - there are too many people to name, however we must recognize Jimmy Hung and his Team Leaders for their leadership throughout!

Great job everyone!!!
