The Yellow Ribbon Run (YRR) is the Yellow Ribbon Project's flagship event, and this year, it is making history. For the very first time, the YRR is heading to the city, taking runners on a scenic and energising route around the National Stadium before culminating in a vibrant carnival that celebrates hope, acceptance and second chances. Whether you are a seasoned runner or a first-time participant, there is a place for you here. This year's run introduces a new 888m Parent-Child run category for children aged 4 to 12 to run alongside a parent or guardian, inviting families to come together and show their support for second chances as one. Every stride you take is a powerful statement that everyone deserves a second chance, and together, we can turn acceptance into action. ..
