SSTAR.fitness Crew weekly group running sessions (every Tue, Thu and Sat)

We welcome all runners who are keen to improve their fitness, or are looking for a breakthrough to achieve a better race timing. Our running club is the only one that is founded and led by two full-time running coaches, Andrew Cheong and Diana Lee; they are the first and only Singapore couple that have achieved the World Marathon Majors Six Star medal. Between them, they have completed more than 100 marathons.

We train three times a week, on Tues, Thurs and Sat. Join us if you are interested to sign up for a 21-day free trial. After your trial, you should consider any one of our six-month training programs (prices range from $50, $100 and $200 per month). When you have completed your training, you will be a Club member and get to run for free every Thurs and Saturdays with no expiry date, plus you get to enjoy Club member benefits like discounts for running shoes, sports equipment and more.

Unlike many other running clubs, we put a lot of focus on training and preparing you for races. Of course we have our social and fun side as well! Follow our Club activities on Facebook, Instagram and Strava
