Along the way, participants will also get to tackle fun obstacle challenges, including activities such as buddy skipping, trampoline photo jumps and more.

Exciting Outdoor Fun
The inaugural edition of the SAFRA Punggol Waterway Challenge was held in 2016 to celebrate the opening of the new club. Among the 400 participants, more than 120 parent-and-child pairs took on a course around the scenic Punggol Waterway Park and Coney Island Park.
Riding on the success of the first race, this year’s edition of the SAFRA Punggol Waterway Challenge will thus feature new race routes and challenge stations for participants to enjoy and bond.
Rise Up to the Challenge
Parents with children between seven and 10 years old can join in the AceKids Challenge. At around 7 km long, the course will include a cycling route, running course and paddle in a double kayak. Teams will need to comprise one parent and one child racing together.
Parents with slightly older children can participate in the ChampKids Challenge. This category is for children between 11 and 14 years old and their parents. Teams in the ChampKids Challenge will need to complete a total route distance of around 10 km.
Young adults who are 15 years old and above can also participate in the Doubles Challenge.
Kayaks will be provided as part of the SAFRA Punggol Waterway Challenge 2018, but participants will have to bring their own mountain bike or rent one onsite from Bikes at Waterway at SAFRA Punggol.
Cash Prizes To Be Won
All participants will receive a finisher’s medal.
The top three teams in the AceKids and ChampKids categories will receive cash prizes from $100 to $400 each.
For the record, the AceKids and ChampKids champion teams in 2016 both powered home in under 1.5 hours. But no pressure!

The SAFRA Punggol Waterway Challenge 2018 is open to all members of the public and SAFRA members can enjoy discounted rates. Participants need to be generally fit and are encouraged to conduct a fitness self-assessment using the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) prior to the race.
