The Full Story
About Zephyr
Zephyr is a nonprofit running club based in Singapore, built to bring runners together and push each other forward. We’re all about community, growth, and a shared love for running.
How we get started..
Started in 2021 by two passionate runners—Charles Yang and Glen Tan—Zephyr began as a small group meeting at West Coast Park. What started as casual runs quickly grew into something bigger. By 2025, Zephyr had grown into a 500-strong team, lovingly known as the “Coconuts”—a group driven by support, ambition, and pure joy for the sport.
More than just a club, Zephyr is a nonprofit organization that gives back. We use running to fuel charity efforts and make a real difference in the local community.
The Zephyr Culture
Zephyr Running Club fosters a welcoming, inclusive, and supportive environment where runners of all levels come together to pursue their passion for running.
What keeps us going:
Inclusivity – Fast or slow, new or seasoned, everyone belongs.
Camaraderie – We run together, push each other, and celebrate every win.
Respect & Encouragement – Every step forward counts.
Giving Back – Running isn’t just about us—it’s about using what we love to do some good.
Our Vision
More than Just Running
Zephyr is more than just a running club—it’s a community. We train, race, and push limits side by side, whether it’s a local 5K or the Six Majors overseas. Big or small, every race is a shared experience, and we always make time to celebrate.
At the heart of it all, running is better with friends.
