Income Insurance’s flagship carbon-neutral run, Income Eco Run (IER) 2026, returns on Sunday, 19 April 2026, at Bayfront Event Space. This year’s run includes a new Eco Experience for child participants. Held under the theme “How Far Will You Go for Zero Waste?”, the carbon-neutral run is designed to be inclusive and family-friendly, with expanded categories to welcome runners of all ages, and even pets! 

In addition to its established adult distances for the 3KM, 5KM, 10KM, 15KM and 21.1KM distances, Income Eco Run 2026 introduces:

  • A new 1.2KM Kids Run for children aged 10–12, alongside the classic 700M Dash for ages 4–9

  • Expanded Pets Categories with 700M and 1.2KM options for dogs and cats, with up to two owners per pet

Income Eco Run will launch new eco learning journeys post-event that allow children to learn more about the circular economy as part of sustainable practices they partake in at IER. As part of the new ‘Eco Experience’ initiative, children can explore first-hand how e-waste is recycled at ALBA e-waste’s facility, and how plastic-free paper cups and banana peels from the run are composted by ENTO Industries. Other options include an interactive sustainability learning journey by WWF-Singapore at Fairprice’s flagship sustainable store to learn about eco labels and green practices that individuals can adopt as part of their grocery runs. 

Child participants will have the opportunity to register as a parent-child pair for one of these post-event eco excursions with the green partners, designed to nurture the next generation of eco advocates for young participants to learn about sustainability in fun and engaging ways. (Limited slots will be available, on a first come, first serve basis.)

Furthermore, staying true to its ‘wear-your-own-tee’ ethos, Income Eco Run continues to champion waste reduction by offering its event T-shirt as an optional purchase. This year, Income Eco Run will introduce an optional sustainability-themed event T-shirt, created in collaboration with local illustrator Tammy Chew (@teechewpaper). Made from recycled water bottles, the $10 tee encourages reuse beyond race day and remains an opt-in choice for participants.

On event day, IER will continue to host the IER Eco Village, offering more sustainability-focused experiences for participants and provide an accessible platform for attendees to support waste practices, such as e-waste and plastic recycling and upcycling. 

Registration for the IER is now open at https://www.income.com.sg/ecorun with registration fees starting from $40 for adults, $16 for children, and $20/$35 for the Pets Category. 

Register now and enjoy early bird rates from now until 14 February 2026.
