| Singapore Energizer Night Trail 2015 |
This year the children signed up for the super-duper fun 3km parent and child obstacle course. And they enjoyed themselves thorougly.
The event was held in a forested area at Lorong Asrama (along Mandai Road). The down side of doing the run at this area was, there was no proper parking at the event and worse was that the LTA (Land Transport Authority) came and booked the parked cars along the road side. Hopefully next year the organiser can arrange with regards to the parking situation.
This year was the 4th year that we had joined this event and we must say the orgainser puts in great effort making the run possible.

| Banana Boat sponsoring at the Energizer Night Race 2015 |
As we entered the race area at 3pm, we were called to put sunblock in case we get sun burn. Tell me which run's oragniser actually think of supplying sunblock in a race? Kudos to the great minds thinking for the runners especially the children.

| Car racing game for the children |
This year the kids had various fun games stations which was different from last year which we had wrote about the event here. The children had so much fun with the games that they almost forgot the flag off time at 4pm for the 3km obstacle race.

| Free snacks for the runners at the race |
Not forgetting the free snacks that was catered for the runners too. There were bananas, apples, ice cream and isotonic drink sponsored by Aquarius.
 |
| Stalls selling fruits and food at the race |
There were stalls selling fruits in a cup, salads and sandwiches too in case anyone was hungry as the night run for other categories will only start in the evening.

| Family runners getting ready for the race |
As the runners were ushered to the flag off area about 3.30pm, we noticed some changes to the flow at the starting point. The organisers only allowed the runners to enter the waiting area and it was a distance from where the supportive spectators stood.
We do hear complains that they can't see anything from where they stood, and they were quite disappointed with that. But if we looked from another angle, it could be that the organiser was concerned for the safety of the runners as well as the supporters. It could be due to the overwhelming response of this event that the orgainser is tweaking the situation.

| Runners getting ready for the race |
Nevertheless the runners were all ready for the flag off. There were 8 fun family obstacles course in this race. They were tyres, hurdles, spider web, low crawl, the swamp, jungle descent, giant slide and high crawl. The children were very excited.

| Tresure hunt prizes |
After the race, came play time and snacking time again hahhahaha. As usual there was treasure hunt for the kids to collect tokens in exchange for some prizes.

| Children having fun at the race and enjoying free snacks |
It was such a fun family event to attend again and as we left for dinner, some of our friends were already planning for the 2016 race. It was heartwarming to see our children and their friends enjoying so much together in the race.
If you and your family have not join the Energizer Singapore Night Race yet, do consider for next year. There are other categories like 6km, 12km and the 18k night trail for the adults. The parents and child obstacles course will be 1.5km and 3km race.
