SINGAPORE: More than 1,800 people ran round the clock over the weekend to raise funds for CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' School.
This fund-raiser, which was organised to help rebuild and renovate the school, has also set a new record.
In celebration of the school's 75th birthday, students and alumni forked out S$50 per person in a run to raise cash for new school facilities.
Their effort also surpassed a previous world record set in the UK in 2005 where 801 people ran a relay of 4x100 metres in 24 hours.
The school has made it into the Singapore Book of Records.
