SHAPE Run 2010 closed registration for its women-only event just nine days after it started. All 10,000 places for its 5km and 10km categories run on July 25 were taken up in that short span of time. Registration began at midnight on Friday, April 30, at www.shape.com.sg. Within eight hours, just a third of the slots remained. It took less than 24 hours for sign-ups to hit 8,000 - some 18 hours quicker than last year. Jeanette Wang, associate editor of Shape, said: 'We are completely bowled over by the response. To all the 10,000 lucky women who managed to snag a slot, congratulations! Rest assured, we will be working hard in the next three months to ensure Shape Run 2010 will be a positively memorable experience for you.' Shape, Singapore's premier health, fitness and wellness magazine for women, started the event in 2006 and sparked off a trend of women-only runs. Shape Run has since grown from strength to strength, from 2,500 runners in the inaugural event, to 6,000 (in 2007) and then 8,000 (in 2008 and 2009). In 2008, Shape Run expanded into a regional series, with events introduced in Malaysia and Thailand to great success. Individual 5km and 10km champions of the Singapore leg were sponsored to run in these two events. A fortnight before race day, all 10,000 participants will then congregate at the Shape Run carnival where the latest health, beauty and fitness products and services will be on show. Participants will also be given their Nike running tee, number tag and a handy Shape Run booklet brimming with race, health and nutrition tips. Held from July 9-11 at Marina Square Central Atrium Level 2, the carnival is also open to the public.
