Taking place at HomeTeamNS Bedok Reservoir, RFI 2026 carries the theme “Togetherness”, celebrating the connections built when people of different abilities come together, run alongside one another and share the same journey towards the finish line.

Registration for Run For Inclusion 2026 is now open, with the event aiming to bring together 2,000 participants across the PWSN community, caregivers and the wider community.

Running Together, Beyond Differences

Organised by Runninghour Co-operative Limited, RFI is founded on the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the joy, confidence and camaraderie that sport can bring, regardless of ability.

Under the theme “Togetherness”, RFI 2026 focuses on the shared experiences that bring people closer. Whether running alongside a PWSN participant, volunteering, supporting a fellow runner, or cheering from the sidelines, everyone has a role to play in creating a more inclusive community.

A New Way to Run Together: RFI Introduces Its First Relay Run Category

Making its debut at RFI 2026 is the Relay Run category, designed for corporate teams, schools and community groups looking to take part in an inclusive sporting experience together.

Each team comprises four participants, with each runner completing 2 km before handing over to the next teammate. With four runners contributing towards one shared distance and one common finish line, the Relay Run puts teamwork and collective participation at the heart of the RFI experience.

Participants can choose from three race categories:

• 4 km Run
• 8 km Run
• Relay Run – 4 participants × 2 km

The Signature Blindfold Run Returns

A signature RFI experience, the Blindfold Run will return in 2026. Sighted participants will be blindfolded and guided by a fellow runner, offering them an opportunity to experience the importance of trust, communication and connection when navigating a run without sight.

The experience encourages participants to step beyond their usual perspectives and develop a deeper understanding of the experiences of people with visual impairment, while highlighting the importance of building an inclusive environment where everyone can participate with confidence.

Participants who wish to take part in the Blindfold Run may indicate their interest during registration.

Making Inclusion More Accessible

In line with Runninghour’s commitment to making inclusive sport more accessible, 1,000 complimentary entries will be provided to PWSN and their caregivers throughout the registration period, subject to availability.

RFI 2026 aims to create more opportunities for people of different abilities to participate in sport, interact with one another and build meaningful connections within the community.
