If running is one of those goals that always seems to get pushed to “another day”, the 2026 BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas could be a good reason to finally lace up and commit to a race. Better still, SAFRA members can enjoy 10% off selected race registration fees during a limited-time promotion from 14 to 30 September 2026.
The BYD Singapore International Marathon is set to take place from 4 to 6 December 2026, bringing together thousands of runners for one of Singapore’s biggest running weekends. Whether someone is an experienced marathon runner, a casual jogger, a parent looking for an active event for the children, or someone simply keen to try an organised race for the first time, there are several race categories to choose from.
With the SAFRA10 promotion code, eligible SAFRA members can save 10% on registration for the Kids Dash 600m, Kids Dash 1.6km (Non-Competitive), 5km, Standard Chartered 10km, adidas Half Marathon and BYD Marathon. That makes this promotion worth looking at before the registration window closes.
A Race Weekend With Something for Different Runners
One of the appealing things about the BYD Singapore International Marathon is that participants do not all have to be marathoners. The event brings together a range of distances, allowing people with different levels of running experience to take part.
For younger participants, the Kids Dash offers shorter distances designed around children. The 600m option gives them a chance to experience the excitement of race day without committing to a long-distance run, while the 1.6km Non-Competitive category offers another way for children to get involved.
Adults and older runners can choose from the 5km, Standard Chartered 10km, adidas Half Marathon or the full BYD Marathon. Each distance presents a different challenge, so there is plenty of room to set a personal goal.
Someone who has never participated in an organised race may prefer to start with the 5km. Those who have already built up their running routine might look towards the 10km or half marathon. For experienced distance runners, the BYD Marathon provides the biggest challenge of the weekend.
Save 10% With the SAFRA10 Promo Code
The main attraction of this particular offer is straightforward: eligible SAFRA members can receive 10% off their race registration fees.
To claim the promotion, participants need to use the promo code SAFRA10 when registering. The offer is available from 14 to 30 September 2026, so there is a relatively short period to make a decision.
It is worth checking the registration requirements before completing the booking. Participants must hold a valid SAFRA membership where applicable at the time of registration, and by using the promotion, they confirm that they meet the relevant eligibility requirements.
The discount cannot be combined with other promotions, privileges, discount cards or promotional vouchers. Race registration is also subject to availability and the applicable event registration terms and conditions.
For anyone who was already planning to enter one of the eligible categories, this could be a useful opportunity to reduce the upfront registration cost.
Why Should We Go and Enjoy This Deal?
A running event is about more than simply getting from the starting line to the finish line. For many participants, the preparation can become part of the experience.
Having a race date on the calendar gives runners something concrete to work towards. Instead of casually saying that they should exercise more, participants can set a target and gradually build their fitness around it. Even choosing the 5km category can provide a useful motivation to establish a more consistent running routine.
The event can also be a social experience. Friends, couples and family members can register for suitable categories and turn race weekend into a shared activity. For families, having children participate in the Kids Dash can make the event especially memorable, giving younger runners their own race-day experience.
Then there is the atmosphere of taking part in a major running weekend in Singapore. Thousands of local and international participants are expected to gather across the different race categories, creating the kind of energy that is difficult to recreate during an ordinary morning run.
The 10% saving is another practical reason to register during the promotion period. A discount may not completely change the cost of entering a race, but if someone has already decided to participate, there is little reason to pay more when an eligible promotional rate is available.
Pick a Distance That Matches Your Goal
It is important not to choose a distance simply because someone else is doing it. The better approach is to consider current fitness, previous running experience and the amount of preparation time available before December.
The 5km can be a sensible starting point for newer runners, while the Standard Chartered 10km offers a greater challenge without reaching half-marathon distance.
For runners who want to push themselves further, the adidas Half Marathon provides a significant training goal. The BYD Marathon, meanwhile, is the event’s full-distance challenge and requires considerably more preparation.
Families should also take note of the Kids Dash options. The 600m and 1.6km Non-Competitive categories give younger participants an opportunity to be part of the wider event.
One category that is excluded from this particular promotion is the Kids Dash 1.6km Competitive. Anyone interested in that category should therefore check the applicable registration arrangements separately.
Register Before the Promotion Ends
The SAFRA10 promotion is only available from 14 to 30 September 2026. That means runners who are interested should not leave registration until the last minute.
Race places are subject to availability, and the promotion does not guarantee entry into a category if registration has already reached its limit. It is therefore sensible to check the official event registration page before making plans.
Registration can be completed through the official BYD Singapore International Marathon website at https://singaporeinternationalmarathon.com/, where participants can find the relevant race information and registration details.
A Chance to Turn a Fitness Goal Into a Race-Day Memory
For anyone who has been looking for an excuse to become more active, the 2026 BYD Singapore International Marathon presented by adidas offers a clear target to work towards. There are multiple race distances, making the event accessible to runners with different levels of experience, while the SAFRA10 promotion gives eligible SAFRA members an opportunity to save 10% on selected registration fees.
The biggest benefit may ultimately be having something to train for. A race date can turn a vague fitness resolution into a real commitment, whether that means preparing for a first 5km, improving a 10km time, completing a half marathon or taking on the full marathon distance.
With registration savings available until 30 September 2026, this is a promotion worth considering sooner rather than later. If the goal is to take part in Singapore’s major running weekend in December, using the available discount could be a practical way to get started.

Participants should also read the applicable terms and conditions before registering, particularly regarding membership eligibility, race availability, promotional exclusions and the use of personal data.
