The Skechers Friendship Walk 2025 made a vibrant debut at Marina Barrage, drawing 5,000 participants to raise $10,000 for APSN, a social service agency supporting individuals with mild intellectual disabilities. Organised by Skechers, the event featured a 10KM Competitive Run and a 5KM Leisure Walk, promoting active lifestyles and community bonding.
The day began with the 10KM run at 7:00 AM, flagged off by Skechers’ management team, including Zann Lee, Irene Lee, and Eileen Tan. Following this, the 5KM walk offered participants lighthearted activities such as a Mini Photo Challenge and Walk the Plank mission. Mediacorp personality Hazelle Teo hosted the event, maintaining high spirits throughout.
Celebrity guests, including Aileen Tan and Eric Teo, joined the walk, showcasing Skechers’ Hands Free Slip-Ins GOwalk 8 shoes. The event also featured a giant Skechers logo photo wall, symbolising the collective effort of participants.
Skechers’ partnership with APSN continues to provide employment opportunities for individuals with mild intellectual disabilities. This year’s donation was celebrated with a performance by APSN beneficiary Samuel Lee En Ci, adding to the day’s festivities.
Post-walk activities at the Skechers Race Village included interactive games and a stage game, Guess the Price. The event concluded with the announcement of the 10KM run winners and a lucky draw, where Zi Qin Saw won a year’s supply of Skechers footwear, marking a memorable end to the day.
